Interesting story here. Well worth the trip. Could do with a cafe though. Today we visited 4 Points nearby, this one is less interesting than others for scenary but still nice walk along the coast and understood why the name was made. Great historical site with magnificent views into the Goulet and the Rade de Brest. Continuous military history from 1594. Good views we followed the guide book but could have missed this Pointe de Pen Hir and Pointe de Dinan had more to offer It's one of those amazing points in camaret that's truly beautiful , plus for those people who loves taking photos it's perfect , and is a historic place as well . Great view over Brest harbour. Good description of the historical remains. Parking very close to the Point. Small museum with tours in various languages. It is part of a larger string of fortifications along the coast that were build to protect the harbour of Brest. Great view of Brest bay and Brest city as well. To point itself is just under reconstruction (as of July 2024), but accessible nonetheless. After it's finished it's going to be even better. The route leading to the point is also full of poi including viewpoints and fortresses. Beautiful view on Brest. We were not there for long, cause just after we arrived, a man I did not know approached us, carrying around a (loaded?) automatic rifle, wearing camouflage clothing. He was talking to us. He could only speak French. Luckily, some bystanders explained that he was a soldier: we had to move our car. Interesting and well set out buildings and pathways. Set on a beautiful headland with amazing views. Very handy car park. Very nice place to visit but during times of corona it can be a little busy. Close to this, there is a lot of parking which is on gravel but easly accessible. Also close to this are amazing views over Brest and the ocean.
