Saint-Pol de Léon:
a fisherman‘ s paradise in Finistère
The Ar Kleguer campsite is ideally located right on the beach for leisure fishing in Brittany. Angling directly from the campsite, or fishing on foot, taking advantage of the foreshore, with its vast expanse of sand, gravel, rocks and seaweed to flush out the seafood you’ll be able to enjoy on your return. In North Finistère, and more particularly in Morlaix Bay, you can enjoy a wide range of fishing activities: on foot, with a line, from the shore or from your boat (kayak or paddle), or even underwater. Don’t hesitate to ask at the campsite reception (we can give you some good tips!).
