We use to go there on Dirt Bikes and play who can get to closest of the Ocean without falling in...

Sadly my last visit was trying to find the Black Box (actually Orange) of Swissair Flight 111 back in 1998

When I rode there, it was a real zoo... Dozens of tour buses and a gazillion tourists all over the place. I parked at the entrance of the village and planned on having lunch but not planning on waiting in line for ever. At least, the Hwy 333 loop is a great riding road. Managed to pick-up fries and fried clams at a roadside stop.

Another nice place to relax. Although if you misjudge the tides, you may end up spending more than a few hours here.

Cathédrale Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption in Clermont-Ferrand. Clermont-Ferrand is one of the oldest towns in France, situated in the volcanic south-central region, the structure is built from the locally-cut volcanic "Pierre de Volvic" (of the Trachyandesite type) that gives the building its dark color and whose strength allows the construction of highly delicate pillars.
