Choosing Brittany as a holiday destination is, let it be said, always a good idea. Plouguin is no exception to the rule that the coastal communes of Finistère are welcoming, full of charm and infinitely pleasant to live in.
Located just next to Lampaul-Ploudalmézeau and Saint-Pabu, about twenty kilometres north of Brest, this small, typically Breton town is the perfect place to settle down. Ideally located a few kilometres from some of the most beautiful sites that Brittany has to offer, Plouguin (or Plougin in Breton) is definitely a good option for your family holidays. If the village is worth a visit, it is above all its seafront that attracts visitors every year. To enjoy it, head north of the city, towards the sea. If Plouguin does not have beaches to swim on, it is nevertheless wet by the waters of the Garo which flows into the Aber Benoît, a site particularly appreciated by boaters who come to moor their boats there for a day to discover the Aber.
By taking the time to hike on the paths of "Rand'Abers 7" or the GR34 which runs along the entire Breton coast, you will discover to the east Tréglonou, and to the west the commune of Saint-Pabu. Renowned for its hiking trails and its beautiful heritage, this small seaside resort is adored for its beaches of Erleac'h, Korn Ar Gazel, Benniget and Ganaoc'h or the wonderful Grande Plage, A paradise for joggers, hikers, swimmers, but also for birds and sports enthusiasts who love sand yachts, surfing, paddle, sailing, longe-côte, skiff, windsurfing, sea fishing (or river), sailing or even kitesurfing. The neighbouring commune of Landéda is also worth a visit for your relaxing breaks under the Breton sun; it has splendid beaches, such as Kloukouri beach, or Sainte-Marguerite, which impresses for the splendour of its waters and dunes where it is pleasant to stroll in love.
Staying in Plouguin is also an opportunity to discover some of the most beautiful wonders of the Breton heritage, both natural and built. But what to see? The castle of Kergroadez, and the ruins of the castle of Trémazan are good options for family outings to discover the historical heritage of the department. About thirty kilometres from Plouguin, four other sites are really worth a visit, such as the Fort de Bertheaume in Plougonvelin, the view of the Île Vierge lighthouse from Plouguerneau, Pointe Saint-Mathieu and its famous lighthouse offering breathtaking views of the cliffs and the sea (after climbing its 163 steps!), or the magnificent Kermorvan lighthouse, located northwest of the Conquet harbour. This lighthouse, built in 1849 on the tip of the Kermorvan peninsula, is emblematic of the region; if it is not open to visitors, it offers one of the most beautiful views of the sea in Brittany from its square. Our good advice: come and contemplate it at sunset, when the sea and sky are tinged with pink, purple and orange, and the boats return to port, accompanied by a wonderful ballet of dolphins swimming and playing in the water... Sure memories!
