SAINT-QUAY-PORTRIEUX • Holiday Guide • P. 21 HISTORY AND HERITAGE

+ L’ÎLE DE LA COMTESSE Countess’s island The perfect playground for budding Robinson Crusoes. Nestled between Pointe du Sémaphore and Saint-Quay Port d’Armor, the tiny Île de la Comtesse, all ruins and greenery, is a haven of peace and quiet. The island’s name probably dates from the 13th century, and several countesses owned the small island in turns.

ǁ Accessible every days at low tide.

+ LA POINTE DU SÉMAPHORE Semaphore Point The Semaphore of Saint-Quay-Portrieux was built on a promontory 100 metres above sea-level. It keeps watch over the maritime traffic of Saint-Brieuc Bay. At the foot of the semaphore, on the footpath (GR 34), there is a panoramic view from the Bréhat archipelago to Cap Fréhel. An orientation table enables you to locate all the main landmarks along the coastline and across the bay.

+ LA CHAPELLE NOTRE-DAME DE LA GARDE The Notre-Dame de la Garde Chapel Built in 1828, this chapel is unique because it was constructed as a rotunda. The chapel is dedicated to Notre Dame de la Garde, worshipped by the sailors returning from the long sea voyages to fish off the coast of Newfoundland and Iceland, and by their families.

+ LA FONTAINE SAINT-QUAY Saint-Quay Fountain A small pyramidal granite monument stands over Fontaine Saint Quay. The water from this spring has always been regarded as miraculous and having special injury-healing properties. The story of its construction is engraved on one side of the monument.

P. 22 • SAINT-QUAY-PORTRIEUX • Holiday Guide + LA PISCINE D’EAU DE MER Saltwater tide pool Probably the most famous view of Saint-Quay-Portrieux. It dates back to 1929, when Saint-Quay-Portrieux became a resort. It took only 4 months to build it, quite a technical feat in the 30’s. There was a double diving board, but it was removed after several accidents.

+ LE MOULIN SAINT-MICHEL Saint Michel windmill It overlooks the town and has a wonderful panoramic view of the entire of Saint-Brieuc Bay. There used to be a small chapel dedicated to the archangel Michael where the windmill stands today. The windmill has been completely restored.

+ LE CHATEAU DE CALAN Calan’s Castle A piece of Moorish architecture on Breton soil. The Count of Calan, diplomat in the Middle-East, built it in 1880. The second owner finished its construction after 1900, keeping the Moorish style which was fancy during the universal exhibition. Today, the villa is a private house.

SAINT-QUAY-PORTRIEUX • Holiday Guide • P. 31 P. 32 • SAINT-QUAY-PORTRIEUX • Holiday Guide FLAVOURS

Saint-Quay-Portrieux is home to a fleet of scallop fishing boats. Here, you’ll learn all about the scallop, or “Coquille Saint-Jacques” as it’s known here, from hatching to eating.

SAINT-QUAY-PORTRIEUX • Holiday Guide • P. 33 Scallop capital THE GREAT SCALLOP, OR PECTEN MAXIMUS It lives mainly in sandy areas. The eggs are laid in the summer, then the larvae drift in the sea before finding a place to attach themselves and grow. Once they have reached a millimetre in size, they detach themselves from their base and live freely on the sandy bottom. They are particularly vulnerable to a wide range of predators. However, they grow quickly and are soon able to escape when attacked. The minimum commercial size is 10 cm (10.2 cm in the case of those fished in Saint-Brieuc Bay); scallops can reach this size after 2 or 3 years. An astounding fact about this species of shellfish is that it contains roe, or ‘coral’ in the summer. From November to April, the period during which they are fished, they are known as a ‘coquilles blanches’ (white scallops that do not contain coral).

SCALLOP FISHING From October to April, fishermen fish scallops 2 or 3 times a week, during a very short time: only 45 minutes! This is highly watched over in order to protect the scallop stock. When it begins, no time to rest: the fishermen put the scallop dredgers into the sea (large metallic nets which scrape the sand to collect shells), then pull it out, sort the shells, throw the small ones (under 10,2 cm) back to the sea. And so on. When the 45 minutes are over, fishermen return to the port quickly to land their catch before it goes to auction. You can watch the boats landing but purchase is not open to the public.
