Our opinion on the Port-Puce or Port-Puns Cove
Port-Puce Beach in Belle-Ile-en-Mer (Sauzon) is mostly used as a boarding place for kayaks and stand-up paddle through the small nautical base installed there. It is also a nice resting place. To get there, from the D25 crossing the island towards the tip of Poulains, do not take route de Gweiots turning right towards the port of Sauzon but the next right, Avenue des Peupliers on nearly 3 km. Then, at the junction with the D30, go through chemin Port-Puce. Why this name? Not because of the size of the creeks nor the parasites, it's just a strain of "puns", well, in Breton.

Photos of the Port-Puce or Port-Puns Cove
45 meters wide, 30 deep, the place is rather cramped but well sheltered from the south and west winds, the most common ones.
Although it is popular with kayakers, the place is also popular with relaxation lovers. Sand prevails and especially this close to the shore.
It is a little less so at the back of the beach.
The number of kayaks and stand-up paddles available is impressive.
The tender of the nautical base is just above the creek...
... Near the small car park overlooking a coastline that one never stops boasting the beauty of.
And the path of the Douaniers is very popular, but spoils what little privacy there is.
