PADDLERUK 54

Finistère, Brittany, France
“I have been taking groups to Brittany for many years and it is always
a highlight of my calendar.The incredible variety of environments is
what makes it special for me.The tidal races of Pointe du Raz are
simply breathtaking.The tide rips around the headland over a series
of jagged rocks that stretch out into the Atlantic.

“Combine this with exposure to
the North Atlantic swells, it is a
testing environment on even the
calmest days. The rock hopping is
some of the best I have ever
found in the world with miles and
miles of coastline with stacks caves
and arches. Top this off with lots of
sheltered water options and surf
beaches you really can find some
great paddling whatever the
weather.”
