Surrounded by the sea, the department of Côtes-d'Armor is globally very hilly. In the south, the Armorican Massif offers beautiful wooded areas. The maritime facade of the department is remarkable thanks to the great variety of its coasts: Côte d'Émeraude and Côte de Granit rose, particularly impressive with its pink rocks, whose apotheosis is in Ploumanac'h with its enormous chaotic rocks. The variety of coastal landscapes is really fascinating, from fine sandy beaches bathed in lagoons to jagged cliffs. Remarkable also, the bay of Saint-Brieuc, kingdom of scallops. Take the time to visit theisland of Bréhat. This destination offers you a religious, architectural, military heritage... reflecting the history of Brittany. Discover the archeological sites where myths, beliefs and legends still hover, the castles of Quintin, Bienassis in Erquy, the ramparts, the maritime and medieval cities. The museums of Art and History in Saint-Brieuc, of Mathurin Méheut in Lamballe or of the Resistance in Argot in Saint-Connan.

When to go to Côtes-D'Armor?

When to visit the Côtes-d'Armor ? The Côtes-d'Armor can be visited all year round! In July and August, the coastline is crowded. You can go sailing, surfing, swimming or just lazing around. Hikers are also legion on the GR34 and the Breton islands are filled with summer visitors. April-June and September are often pleasant and less crowded. This is the best time to go there. Of course, those who wish to swim will aim for the beginning of September, when the water is still a little warm. Walkers and sailors will take advantage of these calmer months to enjoy the Breton nature. From October to March, the weather is generally quite bad, even if the temperatures remain mild. December and January are often rainy months. But in Brittany, there is nothing to stop you from going for a walk: a good raincoat, boots, and you are ready!
