In the surrounding area

Emerald Coast ★★
From Cap Fréhel to Cancale, straddling two departments (22 and 35), this coastal area owes its name to the green hue the sea can take on here. It features several seaside resorts and some beautiful landscapes.

Climate and weather

Like the rest of the coast, the town has a "changeable" oceanic climate—mild, humid, and quite windy in all seasons, with relatively low temperature variation: neither too cold in winter nor too hot in summer. Rainfall (less intense than inland) is spread throughout the year, peaking in autumn and winter.
