Bangor

Bangor occupies a windswept stretch of Belle-Île-en-Mer’s Atlantic coast in southern Brittany. The commune extends across much of the island’s western side, where the Côte Sauvage is shaped by coves, cliffs and headlands exposed to the open ocean. At Port-Coton, the jagged sea stacks called the Aiguilles de Port-Coton were painted by Claude Monet during his 1886 stay on Belle-Île, securing this coast a place in Impressionist art. Inland, the settlement of Bangor provides a quieter contrast to the shore, while coastal paths trace sections of the island’s perimeter.
