48 Hours on the Rhuys Peninsula: Discreet Hedonism.

Here, luxury speaks softly — in clear lines, sea horizons, and living craftsmanship.

In two days, you can sample the very best of the Rhuys Peninsula — shores, islands, and marshlands — with that rare feeling of time perfectly in hand.

Day 1 — Coastlines, Sea Flavours & Heritage

Morning — Breathing the Coast

Head for the ocean side: a long beach for an easy stride, or more intimate coves if you prefer curves to panoramas. Clear light, just enough wind, and the mind clears with every step.

• Fogeo Beach (Kerjouanno, Arzon) — A wide, pristine stretch for a good warm-up, with a sailing club and park nearby.

• Pointe de Penvins & Notre-Dame-de-la-Côte Chapel (Sarzeau) — A photogenic headland, wide-open views over the Bay of Quiberon.

Midday — Oysters, Pure and Simple

At a local oyster farmer’s: a plate straight from the tide, a precise hint of iodine, a glass of local white. Zero-kilometre perfection.

• Les Parcs du Scluze – La Cabane à Milo (Sarzeau) — A terrace right on the water, tasting menu according to the season.

• Équinoxe – Oyster Tasting (Logeo, Sarzeau) — Feet-in-the-water shack at the oyster beds, full Gulf view.

Afternoon — Heritage in Light and Shadow

The Suscinio Estate and Marshes: wading birds, salt air, reeds and woods — a piece of Brittany that still breathes.In rougher weather, head for Petit-Mont Cairn (Arzon), a fine lesson in deep time.Finish along the Port-Navalo coastline — sunset on the estuary, or a boat return if you’ve spent the day on the islands.Info: Port-Navalo harbour & travel office, Rue du Général-de-Gaulle, 56640 Arzon.

Evening — Author’s Table

Seasonal menu, honest cooking, local produce, perfect cuisson. Elegance without emphasis; a well-chosen food-and-wine pairing makes all the difference.

Day 2 — Islands, Golf & Horizons

Morning — The Gulf Islands

Ferry to Île-aux-Moines or Île d’Arz: slow bikes, stone walls, peninsulas and inlets. The eyes rest; so do the shoulders.

Midday — Light Lunch

Back on shore, a seaside table: market vegetables, the day’s fish, a short sauce. Leave room for the afternoon.

Afternoon — Courses & Perspectives

Rhuys-Kerver Golf Course for those who like a good trajectory; for others, an easy walk along the coastal path, broad views guaranteed.End the day at Port-Navalo, golden light over the estuary — a classic that needs no caption.

Depending on Weather / Mood

Bright skies: Islands + linear coastal walk, return by shuttle.Changeable: Marshes + museums or heritage stops, tea-room breaks.Strong wind: Wooded golf course or sheltered coves on the Gulf side.

Practical Notes

Short distances: Most sights are within 15–25 minutes by car.Seasons: Winter magnifies marshes and tables; spring suits the islands; autumn is made for long walks.Bookings: Oyster shacks and good tables should be reserved, especially weekends and holidays.Soft mobility: Bikes on site, ferry lines to the islands — travel light.
