The Anse à Ravenel is one of the coves on the western side of Langlade, a shingle beach in a break in the cliffs with a stream coming down behind it and a few summer cabins along the valley. It faces the Atlantic and takes the weather straight on. Boats come in from Saint-Pierre when the sea allows, which is a good deal less often than people would like.

What you actually see

  • The shingle cove - the beach in a break in the western cliffs.
  • The stream - the watercourse coming down behind the shore.
  • The summer cabins - the few houses along the valley.
  • The exposure - a west-facing cove taking Atlantic weather directly.

When to go

June to September is the season the cabins are used. Boat landings depend entirely on the swell. Fog is common through the summer.

Honest expectations

Landings are frequently impossible and trips are cancelled at short notice. Cabins are private and the cove is not a public facility. There are no services of any kind on Langlade.

Nearby

Belle Rivière is east, and the dune is north.
