€251 median: the lowest of any French base in our readings
Reading of 31 August 2026 for a 30 September outing: 34 offers, median €251 per day, first offer at €100, the dearest at €2,270 — a 1-to-23 spread between the two extremes. Perros-Guirec is the 3rd lowest median of the 119 bases in our readings, behind San Antonio (€115) and Lefkada (€242): within that set of 119 bases, it is the lowest median of any French base. The caveat is at the entry end: on the first offer, Perros-Guirec ranks only 33rd out of 119. So this is not the base with the cheapest entry ticket, but the one whose mid-range stays the most contained — which matters when you compare full days rather than teaser listings. Type by type: motorboat €239 median (12 offers, €175 to €2,270) and RIB €279 (13 offers, €175 to €400), those two categories alone accounting for 25 of the 34 offers. The sailboat rests on just 3 offers, €165 to €437: read that as an indication, not a median. No catamaran and no yacht offer appears in our readings for Perros-Guirec, on any date: the fleet on record is a day-trip fleet.

Four named harbours within 8 km on the Pink Granite Coast
From the OpenStreetMap records, the closest departure is the Bassin à flot, 1 km from the centre of Perros-Guirec, followed by Port L’Épine (4.3 km), Port Le Goff (5.5 km) and the Landrellec harbour (7.7 km). Widening the radius: Port Saint-Sauveur (10.8 km), Pors Termen (11.6 km), Toull Ar Vilin (17 km) and Locquirec harbour (20.4 km); further west, Dourduff harbour (36 km) and Locquénolé harbour (37.3 km). Two entries in that list carry no proper name, only the label "Port de plaisance": these are fragments of the source data, not identifiable departure points. Our guide to boat rental in Perros-Guirec and the Pink Granite Coast details those departures, and our guide to Atlantic tides and boat rental explains how to plan a day around the tidal range. Water quality here is a documented subject: a study by Thierry Perrot, Nadège Rossi, Alain Ménesguen and Franck Dumas, published in 2014 in the Journal of Marine Systems, models green tides at five Brittany sites — the bay of La Fresnaye, the bay of Saint-Brieuc, the bay of Lannion, the bay of Guissény and the bay of Douarnenez. It is the bay of Lannion, neighbouring Perros-Guirec, that is modelled, not Perros-Guirec itself. First reported in the 1970s, these ulva blooms have since been an annual recurrence in Brittany, and eutrophication — human-derived nitrogen inputs in particular — has been identified as the main controlling factor. Tracking of nitrogen sources shows that each river contributes locally to the green tides of its own bay; the dynamic modelling concludes that river nitrate concentrations would have to be brought down to between 5 and 15 mg/l depending on the bay in order to halve the ulva biomass on the coasts (see the study).

September, fleet composition and licensing
By outing month, our readings give a €278 median in August 2026 (3 readings) and €276 in September (4 readings): €2 apart from one month to the next. Those €2 say nothing about a price list. Across 34 offers, with no yacht or catamaran to stretch the top of the distribution, a single unit entering or leaving the selection is enough to shift the median by a few euros: these are fleet composition effects, never rate increases. The gap between those monthly medians and the €251 of the reading dated 31 August comes from the same mechanism. On the rules: in France, motorboats rent license-free up to 6 hp (4.5 kW); above that, the French coastal license or an equivalent title is required. Sail needs no license at all. The license-free category, however, shows up on only 2 offers, at €105 and €454: two isolated examples, from which no median can be drawn. To place the base, the regional comparison is Brest: a €348 median across 64 offers on 4 September 2026, €97 above Perros-Guirec, with a higher first offer (€120 against €100). The next French base in the ranking is Sète, at €278 across 45 offers on 1 September 2026, but with a lower entry ticket (€81).

Perros-Guirec's waters, in practice
The pink granite coast, a chaos of rose-coloured boulders on a big-tide sea. Wind-wise: prevailing west-to-north-west winds, the granite demanding buoyed routes and an eye on the tidal range.
Departures, day-trip classics and season
Departures: the Perros-Guirec harbour and its wet basin, below the Pointe du Château. The local classics: the Sept-Îles archipelago and its gannets (a major bird reserve), Ploumanac’h and the Trégastel bay. High season: from June to September, the Sept-Îles teeming with birds in spring.
