Discover the island of Belle Ile, including the iconic Port Coton needles, on this scenic coach tour.
  • Discover Belle Ile, la bien nommée, the largest of the Breton islands.

  • Enjoy a relaxing, scenic coach tour of the island’s rugged coastline.

  • See the iconic Port Coton needles, huge rock pyramids sculpted by the sea.

  • Marvel at the seemingly endless ocean views at Pointe des Poulains.


You’ll meet your coach in Le Palais and begin your scenic coastal drive to Port Coton. En route, you’ll enjoy vistas of the Grand Phare, the great lighthouse. As we arrive at Port Coton, marvel at the renowned needles, rugged pyramids of rock sculpted by the sea.  

We’ll then continue to Pointe des Poulains, the northern tip of the island, and onto Kervilahouen, a peaceful village where the Impressionist Claude Monet spent numerous days painting the nearby wild coast.
