Archaeology handicrafts and science and technology sites to visit Côtes-D'Armor

The commune of Fréhel has two outstanding beaches: the beach of Anse du Croc and the beach of Sables d'Or, a seaside resort born in the middle of the Roaring Twenties. It is a real emblem of the beaches of Costa Rica during the summer season, and a famous surfing spot in the low season. You will enjoy discovering the only beach of the department to be south-facing and sheltered. Moreover, at the end of the Sables d'Or beach, you will discover another natural wonder: the dune arrow.

It seems that the village of Asterix is located in Côtes-d'Armor. Would it be that one? Not really, but built as part of the building of young volunteers, it has benefited from the archaeological discoveries made in the region. You can discover the life of our ancestors the Gallic and, above all, participate in the Gaulympiades, such as the race of the menhir driver or the maritime contests. Attention, nothing to do with the famous Parc Asterix near Paris, and rather aimed at the youngest. Here, pedagogy and quiet games are the program. In order to benefit from all the free activities offered in the park and the picnic era, a modest entrance fee was required. Be aware that this money will be used for humanitarian purposes, for the development of schools in Togo in Africa. More than 50 000 euros have been collected since 1996, allowing for 3300 children to be enrolled in 10 villages.

It is one of the highest places on the coast, which offers a magnificent view of the surrounding coastline. Very uneven, the point of Bihit is formed of a very resistant and ancient rock, gneiss 2 billion years old, one of the oldest rocks in Europe. Grey and sharp, it differs completely from the young granite, pink and round, which forms the island Milliau, its neighbor. You can extend the walk towards the fine sandy beach of Pors Mabo, facing south. You will then pass in front of the Roche mignonne, planted in the water.
