Sillon de Talbert

Sillon de Talbert is a narrow shingle spit that extends far into the bay, shaping the Brittany coastline. The path consists of piled pebbles and sand with flat terrain that is easy to explore.

The shingle spit formed through natural currents over a long period and created a distinctive landform. In the early 1900s, people stopped extracting materials from it to protect the natural structure.

The name comes from a medieval local figure and locals regard this place as an important landmark in their landscape. You can see how the natural environment has been adapted into walking paths and viewing spots that show how people use this coastal area.

Visit during low tide or as the tide is going out to walk safely on the spit. Be aware that conditions can change quickly, so it's important to check tide times and not stay for extended periods.

This place is an important stopover for migratory birds that rest and nest here during their journeys. Seabirds like terns use the shingle spit as a breeding ground, making it a natural spectacle during nesting season.
