Plage de Trehervé

Plage de Trehervé is a sandy beach on the Breton Atlantic coast composed of fine sand tucked between rocky outcrops that frame the bay. The shoreline curves gently, creating small protected coves that reveal different features depending on the tide.

The coastal paths near this beach were used historically by customs officers patrolling against maritime smuggling in the 18th century. These routes served as part of the broader coastal defense network of the Breton peninsula during that era.

Local fishermen maintain traditional practices by collecting shellfish at low tide using methods passed down through generations of Breton coastal communities.

A dedicated parking area provides easy access to the beach, and facilities include restrooms with camping options nearby for those staying longer. Visiting at low tide offers the most to explore, as more sand and rock pools become accessible.

Natural tidal pools form in the rock crevices during low tide, creating temporary aquariums filled with small fish and marine life. These fleeting habitats offer a rare glimpse into underwater ecosystems that are normally hidden beneath the waves.
