Trez Rouz Plage is a scenic beach located in the resort town of Camaret-sur-Mer, situated in the Finistère department of Brittany, France. The beach is found to the north of the town, near Pointe des Espagnols and Roscanvel, and is also shared with the commune of Crozon.
The natural environment of Trez Rouz Plage is characterized by its wild and untouched surroundings, accentuated by the maquis vegetation that thrives in the area. The sand on the beach is restricted during high tide, and there are rocky spaces and a small pebble cove on the left side of the beach, adding to its rugged charm.
The beach is known for its beautiful views of the center of Camaret and the stunning sunsets that it offers. In addition to its natural beauty, the beach also carries historical significance as it was the landing site of an English contingent in 1694 during an attempt to take Brest, which reportedly led to the beach being named Trez Rouz.
Amenities in the vicinity of the beach include several campsites that are conveniently located for visitors planning an extended stay. There are also several interesting viewpoints such as the Fort and Pointe des Capucins, Fort and Pointe de Comouaille, and Pointe des Espagnols.
Parking is available along the road that provides visibility to the beach, and visitors can reach the beach from the center of Camaret by following the signs for Pointe des Espagnols.
During the summer, Trez Rouz Plage becomes a favored destination for beachgoers and can attract a large number of visitors, leading to it becoming crowded during peak season. However, despite the popularity, it still maintains its preserved environment, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a wild beach experience.
