The giant tidal range in Brittany varies up to 12 meters. Besides vast amounts of mussels, seashells, seaweed and mud holes to step into, the vanishing water during low tide leaves tidal pools - rests of sea water caught in the craggedness of the beaches. Interesting photographic opportunities - in close-ups of the life in the pools as well as from further away - such as this structural image.
