Trez ar Poul, Sandy beach in Telgruc-sur-Mer, Finistère, France
Trez ar Poul is a sandy beach in Telgruc-sur-Mer on the Breton coast, bounded by tall cliffs and facing the Atlantic Ocean. The shoreline curves along a rocky cove with fine sand and sits near the GR34 hiking trail.
The beach formed over millions of years through tidal movements and erosion on the Finistère coast. The rock formations visible here show how natural forces have shaped this shoreline over time.
Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices at Trez ar Poul, contributing to the preservation of Brittany's maritime heritage and coastal lifestyle.
You reach the sand by walking about 400 meters from the parking area along a path with stone steps down the slope. The route is straightforward and the steps help manage the steep terrain.
The cove reveals extra sand and rock pools when the tide goes out, changing how the beach looks depending on when you visit. This shifting appearance means you see something different each time depending on the tidal cycle.
