Ile Houat
The island of Houat is off the Morbihan coast and is reached by ferry from Quiberon.
Houat is only 5km by 1km, and can be well explored by bike, or even better on foot by following the coast path around the island.
The coast path is a very good way to see the various granite rock formations and causeways that surround much of the island.
There is only one village on the island - Houat - which is a pretty, whitewashed little place sat above the harbour below.
There are several popular beaches on the more protected east/south-east side of the island - one particularly noteworthy beach on Houat is at Treac'h ar Goured.
