Secret Quiberon. our best addresses

Surrounded by water, the Quibero Peninsula alternates with the open sea, with its wild coast, swept by winds and waves, and the almost Mediterranean softness of its sheltered coves, where the Atlantic Ocean takes on turquoise hues. Quiberon and its bay are also villages and hamlets with blue shutters and lush beds of hydrangeas, small hotels with old-fashioned charm, pancakes that taste like childhood, mussel and potato casseroles and invigorating sea baths.
