Erquy

Erquy straddles the coastline of the Bay of Saint-Brieuc in northern Brittany, a position that has made the sea central to both its fishing trade and its life as a seaside town. Its harbour is closely associated with the Coquille Saint-Jacques fishery; during the season, scallop boats remain a defining part of the local economy. To the east, Cap d’Erquy brings heathland and distinctive pink sandstone cliffs to the edge of the English Channel, with marked coastal paths connecting beaches, coves and the headland. Erquy is also on the GR34, Brittany’s long-distance coastal footpath, making it a practical base for walks along the Côte de Penthièvre.
