Saint-Cast-le-Guildo

The commune extends along the English Channel with seven distinct beaches and a port that supports both fishing and recreational activities.

The Battle of St Cast in 1758 marked a significant French victory when Emmanuel-Armand de Richelieu's forces repelled British troops from the coast.

Local inhabitants, known as castins, maintain Breton culinary traditions through specialties like Le Castin and fresh seafood from local fishing boats.

The tourist office in Place General du Gaulle provides detailed maps for walks, including an eight-kilometer route around the Pointe de Saint Cast.

During low tide, visitors can walk to Les Ebihens island, which features a 17th-century Vauban tower and natural shellfish beds.
