Plage de Sainte Anne

Sainte-Anne beach is a coastal strip with fine pale sand that extends along Douarnenez Bay with a gentle slope into the water. The shoreline offers ample space for swimming, paddling, and other seaside activities.

The beach takes its name from the nearby Sainte-Anne-la-Palud chapel, which has been significant in the region for centuries. This religious connection shaped how the local community developed and valued their coastal area over time.

The beach draws locals and visitors who gather to enjoy water activities and seaside traditions together. It remains a social hub where people spend leisure time with family and friends throughout the year.

The beach has designated swimming areas watched by lifeguards during warmer months. Parking is available nearby and access from the main road is straightforward and easy.

When the tide goes out, the sea pulls back far from shore and reveals wide sandy areas where visitors can draw temporary messages and art in the sand. This changing landscape creates a fresh scene on the coast each time.
