Plage du Coz Pors, Sand beach in Trégastel, France.
Plage du Coz Pors is a sandy beach in Trégastel bordered by distinctive pink granite rock formations. These rocks, including the formations called Dé, Tas de Crêpes, and Sorcière, shape the landscape and create sheltered coves throughout the shoreline.
The pink granite formations were shaped over millions of years by erosion and weathering of the rock. This coastline is part of the broader Côte de Granit Rose, a region known for these distinctive geological features.
The beach draws visitors interested in local maritime life and serves as a departure point for boat trips to nearby islands. These excursions connect travelers to the region's coastal heritage and the communities that live along this shore.
Lifeguards monitor swimming areas during the summer months from July to August, while facilities on the beach and at the nearby Forum de Trégastel include showers, a seawater pool, and restaurants. Planning a visit outside these months means fewer amenities but also fewer crowds.
At low tide, the beach transforms to reveal granite islets and rock formations that become accessible to explore on foot. The adjacent Aquarium Marin displays marine life in naturalistic rock settings rather than in standard tanks.
