Anchored off Portivy near Fort de Penthièvre |
Off Ile Téveic we took down the sails and tip-toed cautiously through the rocks towards Fort de Penthièvre. In future it would be wiser to take a wide berth around the north of the island but it was a calm day and we did get a lovely view of its beach, which Peter Cumberlidge, in his book ‘Secret Anchorages of Brittany’, recommends as an anchorage in settled weather. However, we had designs on anchoring close into the wide sandy bay, fantastically empty now that the holidays were over, and a rare opportunity given that this coast is wide open to the prevailing SW winds.
