Things To Do: Table d'orientation
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you want the best view overlooking Roscoff there is a hill between the old port and the ferry port. It is not immediately obvious from ground level and (I don't think) signposted. I merely stumbled accross it (after a 2&1/2 hour lunch stumbling is probably the most appropriate description!), having decided to walk out of town along the seafront in the opposite direction from my morning walk.

    There it was, this little hill, with a little windey path leading from a dusty little carpark - with no cars in it (little or otherwise) and a little white church on the top.

    The hill is probably not even 200 metres high but the view over the town, the old port and the bays on both sides is superb. It has one of these coin-fed binocular things, but the panorama doesn't really require using it.

    Address: Pointe de Bloscon
    Directions: From the old port just follow the shore going east, at one stage you have to use the road but you always have the sea in view.

     Yes, it will definitely be by the sea, where there's a lot of sun most all time of the year!! Marina ;-)
