Plage d'Erquy — photo spot in Erquy, France

Plage d'Erquy is a wide, sandy bay backed by pink sandstone cliffs and dunes — ideal for dramatic coastal landscapes, textured foregrounds and long exposures of surf. Best at sunrise and late afternoon for warm light and low tides; winter storms add mood. Accessible by car with nearby parking in town; paths down dunes can be steep. No entry fees. Weekdays and early mornings minimize crowds; check tide tables for exposed rock features.more
