Côte Sauvage: from Le Pouliguen to Batz-sur-Mer
Weather in Brittany is supposedly similar to the Irish’s, mostly rain-related, but I find a rather dissimilar point between them – in Ireland, we often get drizzle all day long whereas in Brittany, rain and sunny spell alternate in bursts. This trip round, I’ve been lucky. It rained when we were in cars etc, and it shined when we were out for walks. Long walks even.
One of the afternoons, Nico joined us for a walk at the Côte Sauvage. We trekked along the coastal cliff/path from Le Pouliguen to Batz-sur-Mer, and it took just a little over 2 hours in each directions after factoring in photo breaks as well as pauses to watch the surfers taming the waves that crashed in seemingly haphazardly.
Here are some photos from the day, and I love the last few on sunset. So dramatic, for something quite fleeting. ;)
And last but not least, a panoramic shot from my smartphone. Isn’t the scene before my very eyes breathtakingly beautiful?
very nice and beautiful….great weather!
Love the photos especially the pano…the real thing must have been chunssssss ;)
did u join the surfers? hehehe
you wouldn’t believe from the blue sky that it just rained shortly before we left on the walk.
still can’t swim, can’t join the surfers :p
nice, esp the clouds/ horizon/ sunset! though a bit cold for swimming…
i thought so too! but apparently in the wet suit they don’t feel it as much…
