Arche de Porh Blanc, Natural arch in Saint-Pierre-Quiberon, France.
The coastal rock formation features a large opening created by sea erosion, forming a natural stone bridge over the Atlantic waters.
The arch stands as evidence of centuries of geological processes, shaped by ocean forces that have gradually eroded the rocky coastline of Brittany.
Local fishermen traditionally used the arch as a navigation marker, incorporating it into maritime routes along the Quiberon Peninsula's western coast.
Visitors can reach the arch through marked coastal paths, with observation points offering clear views during low tide between April and October.
The geological formation presents different shapes when viewed from various angles, creating natural frames for sunrise and sunset photographs.
