Saint-Nic

Saint-Nic is a commune on the Crozon Peninsula featuring a three-kilometer sandy beach at Pentrez alongside smaller coves tucked between rocky cliffs. The coastline alternates between wide sandy stretches and jagged shores with hidden swimming spots.

The Chapelle Saint-Côme dates from the 17th century and displays Gothic architecture with a roof frame shaped like a ship's hull. This construction reflects early religious settlement and the maritime traditions of the area.

The Monday market from April to September displays regional products like fresh seafood and Breton crafts from local producers. Visitors experience how the community maintains its connection to traditional trades and coastal food.

The main beach at Pentrez has lifeguards every afternoon during July and August with a first aid station at the entrance. Check tide schedules to find the best times for different beach sections and cove access.

The Dolmen of Menez-Lié consists of a stone table supported by just three pillars and dates from the Neolithic period. These minimal megalithic structures show how early inhabitants built lasting constructions with simple resources.
