Cléden-Cap-Sizun is a town of around a thousand inhabitants located at the extreme tip of Finistère, in the Cap-Sizun peninsula. To get there, you will have to take the direction of Quimper then Douarnenez and finally Pointe du Van, a rocky spur located in the town.

To the north and west, the town is bordered by steep and arid granite cliffs separated by a few coves with fine sand and clear, invigorating water. This jagged coastline extends eastwards to the town of Douarnenez. To the south, this harsh landscape softens and transforms into a wooded valley separating Cléden from the communes of Plogoff and Primelin.
