About

Kerler is one of the large beaches of Fouesnant-les Glénan. It sits in a vast coastal landscape of fine sand and protected natural areas, with a far more open and wild feel than the Beg-Meil coves. In 2026, Kerler was one of the four Fouesnant beaches lifeguarded every day in July and August from 1.30 pm to 7.30 pm. It also holds the Blue Flag label, which reflects the water quality and the environmental management of the site. A naturist area of about one kilometre is officially signposted and open from 1 May to 31 October, from 10 am until sunset. Fouesnant does not install showers on its beaches, to save fresh water. Dogs are banned from 1 June to 30 September, even on a lead, then allowed out of season as long as they stay on a lead.

What you will see

• A long fine-sand beach.
• Fouesnant’s natural coastline.
