Description

The bay between Pointe de Perharidy and Roscoff attracts many birds. The observation conditions are best at mid-tide (see a link to the tide table below) because the birds gather in a small area, while at extreme low tide, they are more dispersed and far apart.

Français: La pointe est séparée de Roscoff par une Anse où l'on retrouve de nombreux oiseaux à marée basse qui se nourissent à cet endroit. Surtout en hivernage. Les conditions d'observation sont meilleures en marée intermédiaire, les oiseaux se regroupent sur une petite zone alors qu'à marée basse extrême, ils sont plus dispersés et éloignés.
