Plage de la Source

Plage de la Source is a tranquil beach located in the town of Crozon, in the Finistère department of the Bretagne region in France. This picturesque destination is situated on the eastern side of the island of l'Aber, near the pointe de Raquenez, and is known for its natural beauty and serene environment.

One of the defining characteristics of Plage de la Source is its accessibility during low tide. The beach can be reached by a quick but steep staircase, leading to a sandy cove that is less crowded, especially during the summer, providing a peaceful atmosphere for visitors. The beach also features geological curiosities, adding to its charm and appeal.

An interesting feature of Plage de la Source is the presence of a menhir, a type of standing stone, located along the coastal path. Furthermore, the beach is characterized by small natural pools, making it a perfect spot for children, while older visitors can enjoy the vast expanse of blue water.

Access to Plage de la Source is via the D887, also known as Route de Crozon. At the second roundabout, visitors need to turn right towards plage de l'Aber, following signs for the four à chaux and l'Aber. Despite its secluded location, Plage de la Source is accessible by car.

However, visitors are advised to be cautious about parking. The parking area at the pointe is located in a residential street where access is only allowed for residents. There have been instances when fines were issued for vehicles parked at the entrance to the beach. To avoid these potential issues, it is recommended to park in the nearby village.
