Port Goulphar

You'll anchor off Port Goulphar, a dramatic inlet on the wild western coast of Belle-Île, Brittany's largest offshore island. The surrounding basalt cliffs and sea caves were famously painted by Monet in 1886, and it's easy to see why — the scenery is genuinely jaw-dropping, with jagged rock formations tumbling into churning Atlantic swells. Nearby Grotte de l'Apothicairerie is one of Brittany's most impressive sea caves, accessible by dinghy in calm conditions.
