Where Is This?

That's right: Camaret sur Mer.

For those who are curious about the truncated form of the bell tower, it's due to the sea.

The church and the Vauban Tower are built on a small island that was linked the continent by a small ridge. This was used to build the sea wall protecting the harbour. At high tide, the church is less than 15 meters from the sea.

The sea side of the wall has an added protection to break the waves: a mountain of round stone pebbles. Quite big pebbles: they weight around 40 pounds. Usually it is enough. But sometimes the waves are powerful enough to propel those stones like cannonballs and strike the tower bell or come throught the roof of the church.

On occasion, when sea, tide and wind are in the hurricane range, those stones can reach the marina and sink boats more than 40 meters away.
