A natural phenomenon born in the last century, part of which can be seen and moved by the wind and tides in Étel.

Located in the extension of the large dune beaches of Plouhinec and Erdeven, the Étel bar is a natural phenomenon born in the last century which takes its name from an underwater sandbank formed by the currents that cross at the entrance of the Ria, at the meeting point of the tide and the river. At low tide, it is partially uncovered and moves with the wind and the tides, making navigation unlikely. In calm weather, the danger remains because the channel is narrow and shallow. On the other hand, there is no danger to explore the Ria from the port of Étel.

Quel régal de savourer cette vue de la barre d'Etel lorsque l'on se trouve près du sémaphore sur la commune de Plouhinec et de pouvoir humer cet air du large. Par temps clair il est possible de voir lîle de Groix , belle île plus loin et la presqu'île de Quiberon. Les plages d'Erdeven et de PLouhinec entourent cette barre. Il est possible de marcher sur les chemins tracés sur les dunes alentour.
Délicieuse balade marine.
very pretty site. Very large dune extent and power of the sea is striking especially when storms. The view is magnificent on the ría Etel.
