Ploumanac'h
Ploumanac'h (French pronounciation [plumanak] or [plumana], and in Breton [pluˈmãːnax]) is a village port in a natural harbour, 3 kilometres north-west of the commune of Perros-Guirec, in the Côtes-d'Armor department of the Brittany region of France. In 2015 it was voted "the village most preferred by the French".[1]
A feature is the pink granite rock of the coast. Buildings of interest are the tidal mill and the Ploumanac'h lighthouse. The chapel of Saint Guirec faces the beach, opposite its little 12th-century oratory now in the waters of the bay.
