Stop 04Continue to Val-André
After lunch, continue to the second accommodation rather than returning to the headland. A short stop is optional depending on traffic, fatigue and key collection. The section towards Fort La Latte is not part of the plan.
Stop 05Check in at the agreed time
Reach your Pléneuf-Val-André accommodation at the time agreed with the host. 17.00 is a planning marker, not guaranteed key collection. Leave a margin before dinner.
Stop 06Dinner from your new accommodation
Check Val-André options under Restaurants. Le 1925 at Sables-d’Or-les-Pins requires additional travel; do not assume it is walkable from your accommodation. Confirm service before leaving.

Before you travel
Book ahead when it matters
Check what is open on your dates, then book any meals, visits and crossings that require a reservation. Your guide helps you plan; you remain in control of bookings.
Leave a little breathing room
Parking, breaks and traffic are part of the trip. The times in your plan are a guide, to be adjusted to your own pace.
Plan around the weather
Bring comfortable shoes and protection from rain and wind. Decide on crossings and exposed coastal walks according to conditions on the day.
Keep an eye on the tides
At the coast, check tide times and local guidance before walking onto the tidal shore. Shortening a walk can help keep the rest of your day relaxed.
You book directly with each provider. Confirm opening times, prices and access conditions for your travel dates.
