Plage les Grands Sables, Beach at Groix Island, France
The white sand beach stretches along the coast of Groix Island, featuring transparent waters and a large open space for visitors.
The beach location shifted more than 150 meters between 1990 and 1992, demonstrating the strong influence of ocean currents on coastal formations.
Local residents and visitors gather at the beach during summer for sailing activities, beach games, and swimming in the clear waters.
The beach offers supervised swimming from July 1st to August 31st, with rental services for catamarans and beach equipment available onsite.
The beach presents a rare convex shape formed by converging ocean currents, making it one of the few such formations in Europe.
