The beach of Men Armor, in the very north, is for example ideal for birdwatching. Those of Camaret and Halguen offer a very beautiful view of the Vilaine. The Lomer and the Bile are ideal places for fishing on foot and those of the Source, the Maresclé and Loscolo are suitable for swimming. As for water sports enthusiasts, you have to go to Poudrantais!
