We will be heading to this area in about a weeks time. Never been before. Any suggestions for campsites or best parts to visit please.

Just over a year
We were there in April and stayed at camping municipal Ile Grande, on an 'island' connected by a causeway right on the coast. Grass pitches with EHU and sea views, clean and peaceful and a nice restaurant opposite the entrance. There is also an aire next door if you don't fancy campsites.

The walks are amazing at high-tide you can see lots of little islands dotted around the bay, at low tide you can actually walk for miles from island to island as the whole bay empties. The site rates quite highly on Camper Contact if use that app (#47492)

Great stuff, will give that a go.

Eight wonderful years!
Hi. we were there a couple of weeks ago. Parking isn't easy on that coast - lots of height barriers. Nothing in camper contact. Couldn't find anywhere in Perros Guirec but followed parking signs towards the coast in Ploumanach which led us to a car park (with loos) €6 for the day for motorhomes (no overnight). Rue de Ranollen, off Rue St Guirec. There is a campsite adjacent. Sign showing how to get to coast - 10 min walk. Coast is stunning! Maybe worth taking lunch and making a day of it walking into Ploumanach. The info centre has leaflet showing main points of interest along the trail. We spent the night at an uninteresting but spacious Aire outside a campsite on the Ile Grande, €10 a night, which has ehu, - but only from 7pm when money is collected by grumpy woman. The nearby beach is gorgeous - the campsite is only €17 per night and the pitches with sea view are fab (but maybe cost more?). Enjoy!

Spent a couple of weeks in a hotel in perros Guirec once, when I sprained my ankle. Nothing much I liked about it. There’s a huge beach and free buses.

Eventually opted for the ACSI card site Camping Du Port. On arrival didn't look much but they gave us a pitch 20metres from the waters edge. Sun was shining so we went on a 2 hour walk along the coast. A terrific coastline. Glad we came.

That's a good site because of the location. The restaurant (if you can find it :)) do good moules and frittes, the moules rochefort is particularly nice if you like blue cheese. Or buy them fresh from the place next door. About €5 a kg from memory which should be enough for two.

Let me know which Vet you use and how much you're charged to add to my Goggle map of recommended Vets - thanks.
Will do, we used them a couple of years ago. Probably not the cheapest but convenient for us.

Agree and I headed there as it was my birthday and fancied the seafood platter they specialise in. But wife had the final say saying it wasn't worth the money and she had some fishfingers left to use up?

I've seen their seafood platter - it's spectacular. Like an aquarium on a plate and topped by a spider crab. :)
