The Great Sands
The largest beach of the island of Groix, With views of the mainland, Grands Sables, known for its convex shape, has moved away from the VVF beach and closer to Port Mélite. You can enjoy its fine sand and water sports during the season. Bring your volleyball; the flat surface of the beach is perfect for games! Finally, this famous Breton beach is supervised during the season.
Poullziorek (Tahiti Beach)
Of Groix's beaches, this is the northernmost on the island. It is located just before the village of Quelhuit and not far from the Pen Men lighthouse. Poullziorek, often called "« Tahiti beach«" , is located at a small cove that is relatively difficult to access and inaccessible at high tide. However, at low tide this small beach with white sand and turquoise water gains all its "Tahitian" charm.
Porh Koustic
Full of charm, Porh Koustic is nestled between Pointe des Chats and Sables Rouges. You're sure to have a wonderful time with family, friends, or your loved one. Furthermore, at low tide, a mysterious sand passage appears on the right, offering a view of Pointe des Chats.
Kermarec
Located to the right of Locmaria beach, this small, secluded cove with white sand enjoys sunshine all day long. Kermarec is therefore an ideal beach for relaxing and soaking up the wild beauty of Groix Island! Our favorite.

The beach on the Hénoz coast, at the foot of the cliff of the same name overlooking Port-Tudy at the breakwater, is ideal for relaxing after lunch at the port. Discreet yet welcoming, it's one of Groix's beaches that offers a lovely panorama with the surrounding rocks.
Red Sands & VVF
The Red Sands could be said to be subdivided into several small beaches on Groix. To the right, the beach forms a semicircle of ochre-colored sand.

The more adventurous can also explore the rocks and discover the old, abandoned lifeguard hut of Grands Sables.
