Côte Sauvage, Protected natural coastline in Quiberon Peninsula, France

The Côte Sauvage extends for 8 kilometers along granite cliffs, featuring numerous rock formations, natural arches, and deep inlets shaped by ocean forces.

The coastline contains several ancient megalithic structures dating back to Neolithic times, reflecting the prehistoric human presence in this section of Brittany.

Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices along the coast, contributing to the region's reputation for excellent sardines and seafood preservation methods.

The coastal path offers marked trails connecting Port Blanc to Portivy, allowing visitors to explore the shoreline while maintaining a safe distance from cliff edges.

At Port Blanc, a natural stone arch emerges from the water during low tide, creating a natural window through which the sun sets in perfect alignment.
