Trégastel, Coastal commune in Brittany, France
Trégastel is a coastal commune in Brittany along the Pink Granite Coast, stretching across multiple kilometers and offering numerous beaches with distinctive rock formations. The landscape is defined by rose-colored granite, visible throughout both the shoreline and the settlement.
This location saw early human settlement, as evidenced by archaeological finds within the Chapel of Sainte-Anne des Rochers. Over the centuries, the area developed into a coastal community with economic importance for the region.
The municipality maintains connections with international communities through formal partnerships with Foz in Spain and Koussané in Mali since the early 2000s.
Visitors find most beaches easily accessible with many spots for swimming and exploring the rock formations. The location also offers facilities like the Forum with a swimming pool and saunas for year-round activities.
A marine aquarium from the 1960s sits within pink granite rock formations, displaying the sea life found along this coast. The aquarium cleverly uses the natural setting as part of the visitor experience.
