Plage de la Comtesse, Sandy beach in Saint-Quay-Portrieux, France

The beach features a wading pool for young children and a diving raft for swimming activities in the clear waters of the Bay of Saint-Brieuc.

The beach was established as part of Saint-Quay-Portrieux's development into a maritime center, connecting local fishermen with the wider coastal economy.

The beach forms part of the GR34 coastal hiking trail, which follows ancient customs officers' paths along the Brittany coastline.

Visitors have access to showers, drinking water stations, restrooms, and a dedicated lifeguard station during the summer season.

The sand displays an unusual natural phenomenon where its color shifts between white and black due to the presence of ilmenite crystals.
