Pointe du Grand Gouin

The pointe du Grand Gouin (French pronunciation: [pwɛ̃t dy ɡʁɑ̃ ɡwɛ̃]; Breton: poent ar Gouin Bras) is a rocky promontory with vertical cliffs to the west of the inlet of Camaret-sur-Mer in France. It protects a port which, in Vauban's era, was vulnerable to possible landings. It is divided into the Grand Gouin (the top of the cliff) and the Petit Gouin (mid-cliff).
