Marco took this picture when we were in Brittany, France, right before Christmas last year. The place is called Plobannalec-Lesconil and is close to Pont L’Abbe and Quimper. We were about to head to Germany a few days later, and, beach lover that I am, we of course couldn’t leave before going to Lesconil one evening. It’s this really small beach that is great for walks from one end to the next. You can always find a few families taking a stroll or walking their dogs. It’s a very peaceful kind of place. The picture below is not actually of the real beach part, but rather a collection of water right before you pass over the dunes to get to the beach. For the real Brittany beach shots, check out the Facebook album and the post about Lesconil.
This picture was submitted to Travel Photo Thursday over at Budget Travelers Sandbox. Check out some of the amazing pics people are linking to from their blogs.

Sigh, another reason I need to spend way more time in France.
Brittany is gorgeous! And you really aren’t too far away
You could totally go for a long weekend what with cheap trains. I think a long time ago I signed up for email offers from http://www.tgv-europe.com/en/ and periodically they have great sales from Germany to Paris and beyond.
Great shot! I love the reflection of the sun in the water
Me too!
Thanks
Thanks! It’s fascinating that the reflections seems somehow clearer than the original, right?
Love the clouds and the reflection!
Thank you
The water was crazy still that night!
What a beautiful picture! I need to make my way up there some time soon
Thanks! And yes, you should
Gorgeous beaches, delicious food, … what more can you want?!
Nothing like a beach walk to end the day – sounds like a magical sort of place.
So true! I love walking at the beach. That day was a little cold, but it was super nice and relaxing.
Great shot. It almost seems like a dream.
You’re right! I’m kind of dreaming of being there right now
Looks so pristine and calm…very nice!
Thank you
I love this area of the world.
Nice evening shot! Love Bretagne, it’s so full of fabulous spots like this.
Thanks! I do too. It’s beautiful down there!
Gorgeous!! I can just close my eyes and pretend that I am there right now
Thanks! I WISH I was there right no
everybody keeps showing me beaches. Now I can’t wait for my beach holiday, waaaa!!!
You and me both! Unfortunately I have no time for a beach vacation this summer
Where’s yours?
Great shot, Sabrina! You really captured the reflections very well. Pretty place.
That credit really goes to Marco if I remember correctly
Thanks though! I’ll let him know. He already calls himself “Country Skipper’s official photographer”.
