In northwestern France, where Normandy meets Brittany, lies Mont-Saint-Michel, one of Europe’s most iconic natural and cultural landmarks. Its bay, shaped by tides that can rise and fall by as much as 14 metres, is a unique habitat teeming with wildlife. Among its natural wonders is the Saint Anne Reef, the largest animal-built structure in Europe.
The film also explores Brittany’s rugged coastline, where powerful currents and towering waves have driven remarkable adaptations for survival. From devoted father blennies to snails that have mastered the art of “parallel parking,” France’s wild coastline reveals a fascinating world of natural wonders.
