Pleumeur-Bodou

About

Walking along the beach at Keryvon, you will find a landscape shaped by the tides and by a special geological history. The presence of yellow sand and black rocks gives the area an unusual appearance. You can make out the island of Aval in the distance (private property). According to legend, King Arthur was buried here under a granite menhir. In the nineteenth century, a farmer is said to have found around forty skeletons at the foot of the menhir, providing evidence that the site was inhabited in the Middle Ages.
