Curiosity often leads to unexpected discoveries. A visit to the Plage de Port Lin results in a newfound appreciation for Le Croisic on the Guerande peninsula. A late afternoon swim reveals the joy of connecting with fellow beachgoers. While wandering along the coastline, beautiful belle epoque villas and picturesque small headlands are observed. A drive around the peninsula offers more scenic views, and a stop in Le Croisic showcases community life, where locals engage in fishing. All experiences reflect the allure of exploration and simplicity by the sea.
A row of belle epoque villas overlook the rocky coastline, and I climb down on to the sand in front of them to look west at the enchanting view of the small headlands jutting into the sea and scattered black rocks in silhouette.
As I approach the town of Le Croisic, there are more people out for a stroll beneath the towering maritime pine trees and I park up again to join them for a while.
Back in the car, I hazard that I have just enough time to do a circuit of the peninsula if I delay my evening dinner reservation in La Baule.
Old men and teenage boys are peering over the railings, with nets lowered down on lines; there's a jolly camaraderie and their chatter carries on the breeze.
