Where is North Finistère?

Often referred to as "the end of the world", Finistère (29) is one of the 4 departments of Brittany.
It is the most westerly department in France. Bordered by the English Channel, Finistère Nord encompasses several historic Breton regions, Léon to the northwest (between Lannion and Châteaulin) and Trégor to the northeast. Its Breton counterpart, Finistere Sud, also boasts numerous sandy beaches and must-see sites such as the Pointe du Raz opposite the Isle of Sein. Wherever you are in Finistère, you'll find yourself alternating between the marina, the coastline and the Mer d'Iroise!
