Quiberon Peninsula, Brittany

Most exterior filming took place on the Quiberon Peninsula in southern Brittany. Main sites were the Arc de Port Blanc, the Port Blanc beach (plage de Port Blanc) and south to Port Bara.The bright sunshine during filming here set the lighting requirements for the rest of the filming.

The Arc de Port Blanc is at the north end of the Plage de Port Blanc, on the west coast of the Quiberon peninsula in southern Brittany. It is the place where Marianne is delivered to 'the island' and the site of many walks.

The location for the filming of the collection of plants in the marram grass in the sand dunes has not yet been determined. Please let me know so I can update the site.
