Plage de Penhors, Sandy beach in Plovan, France.

Plage de Penhors is a wide sandy beach on Brittany's coast that stretches for several kilometers and is lined with natural dunes. The water opens onto Audierne Bay, and the sand slopes gently into the sea.

Penhors lies in Plovan, in the Bigouden country of Finistère. The surrounding parish is known for its megalithic remains, and the nearby Pointe du Raz and Audierne Bay mark a coast long used for fishing and coastal trade. The beach itself has no recorded battle or monument; its history is that of a working shoreline.

Penhors is a surf spot: the beach faces the swells of Audierne Bay and hosts surf competitions, and the Breton name Penhors refers to the headland above the sand. Surf schools operate from the beach, and the dunes behind it are part of the protected coastal landscape of Plovan.

The beach has multiple access points with parking available and restroom facilities near the main entrances. Lifeguards are present during summer months, and pathways provide easy access to the water.

The beach faces south into Audierne Bay, about 500 km west of Paris, and the local climate is mild: January averages 3 °C, July 18 °C, with roughly 1,163 mm of rain a year. The sand slopes gently, so the waterline moves far between tides.
