Today’s tour from L’Aber Wrac’h comes facing the waves and with heavy fog. The plan is to go through the infamous “Raz du Four” on the very west end of France in slack tidal streams. We take a slow morning with a walk in the village and a long lunch at the ”L’ Ecailler des Abers” to have some more of the delicious oysters from the oyster beds in the bay. Hard to beat.

The fog continues all to the inlet to Bay of Brest. Passing the famous Phare du Four in fog is a Mighty experience and when the fog clears, we pass the Phare du Saint Matieu heading towards Camaret-sur-Mer.

Camaret is obviously a more tourist-oriented town with a row of restaurants at the harbour promenade. The visitors pontoon is at the outer harbour and we pass the old castle, church and ship cemetery to go to the town.
