Reviewed By Ecosapiens - Wales, UK
Ile Vierge was a perfect spot to pause at the end of a memorable 15-mile walk around the peninsula. Pine trees, blue-green seas and good paths made for a perfect half day walk, with this headland one of the Emerald jewels on the way.

This is a clean and easily accessible beach on the crozon peninsular. It is mainly used by surfers, the surf when we saw it wasn't extreme and looked good for beginners. There is also a campsite nearby.

Reviewed By Catherine1128 - Shoreview, Minnesota
This is a beautifully organized little museum which presents tons of interesting information about the geology of the region in an attractive way. The highlight which definitely makes it worth the trip is the room of minerals who become fluorescent under ultra-violet lights. It cycles off between the blue light and regular lights. The fluorescent rocks are arranged in such a way to make this experience truly mesmerizing.

Not so easy to reach (you have to walk!), that beach is simply marvellous, especially at Sunset. But be carrefull if you want to swim, water streams may be very strong!

This is on a small island and when my boyfriend and I went the tide was too high and we were not able to cross to the little island to see the fortress. We were a little disappointed.

First, the church itself is very pretty with lovely stained glass, very detailed carvings, and a beautiful pulpit.
The major item of interest is The Altarpiece of the Ten Thousand Martyrs.
The altarpiece depicts one of several similar legends where Roman soldiers who, led by Saint Acacius, converted to Christianity and were crucified on Mount Ararat in Armenia by order of the Roman emperor.
As recorded in the Catholic Encyclopedia, the legend reads: “The emperors Adrian and Anoninus marched at the head of a large army to suppress the revolt of the Gadarenes and the people of the Euphrates region. Finding too strong an opponent, all fled except nine thousand soldiers. After these had been converted to Christ by the voice of an angel they turned upon the enemy and completely routed them. They were then brought to the top of Mount Ararat and instructed in the faith. When the emperors heard of the victory they sent for the converts to join in sacrifices of thanksgiving to the gods. They refused, and the emperors applied to five tributary kings for aid against the rebels. The kings responded to the call, bringing an immense army. The Christians were asked to deny their faith, and, on refusal, were stoned. But the stones rebounded against the assailants, and at this miracle a thousand soldiers joined the confessors. Hereupon the emperors ordered all to be crucified.”
This wood carving depicts various scenes from the capture and crucifixion of the soldiers.
7. Pointe de Saint-Hernot

Reviewed By Jan S - Amsterdam, The Netherlands
De 'Pointe de Saint-Hernot' ligt ten zuiden van het stadje Crozon en ongeveer halverwege naar het 'Cap de Chevre'. Wij wandelden op de GR 34 vanuit Crozon naar 'Pointe de Saint-Hernot'. Het gaat veel omhoog en omlaag en daardoor is het een behoorlijk vermoeiende wandeling. Dat hadden wij eigenlijk niet verwacht. Maar de mooie kust compenseert de vermoeiende wandeling. 'Pointe de Saint-Hernot' is een schitterende baai. Op de terugweg wandelden wij door bos en woonwijken van Morgat terug naar Crozon.

We drove past and saw a nice Office de Tourism, so we turned round and parked.
It was raining, so we all got out and walked over to the Tourist office.
IT WAS SHUT !! Why ???
It was 12.05 go Friday of a holiday weekend. 1st May
Just the time when tourists will be coming - but no - it was shut
Terrible really.
9. L'Ile Vierge

Reviewed By Ali R
The only problem with this place is that it is too popular. Try going early or late or when it is cloudy. When it is crowded even on the hike there are too many people for my taste. The final scramble to the beach is much easier than it looks at first glance.

Reviewed By Typhaine L - Chateaulin, France
J'ai découvert cette galerie par hasard, passionnée par l'art, je ne connaissais pas l'art aborigène. Un art riche en histoire et en couleur, un travail hors du commun avec beaucoup de matière ! L'artiste d'une grande partie des tableaux qui tient la galerie est très disponible, passionné il prend le temps d'expliquer sont travail, une super rencontre, je ne manquerais pas d'y retourner pour voir ces nouvelles toiles et pourquoi pas pour en acquérir une qui égailleras mon intérieur !!
