Located at the mouth of the Odet River, the town of Combrit is next to Sainte-Marine, just opposite the port of Bénodet. It has a lighthouse, called the Combrit fire, on the right side of the Odet.
The construction of the lighthouse dates back to 1885: a fixed white light, on a square gable tower of the main building, 13.20 m high, produced by a contractor from Pont-l'Abbé, César Maubrat. The lighthouse was electrified in 1943, then damaged on August 10, 1944 by German troops.
It materializes, with the light of the Bénodet lighthouse, a northern alignment that allows you to reach the harbor in front of this last port.
The lighthouse consists of a square tower topped with a red metal lantern and attached to the keeper's house. The south wall is pierced by four windows arranged vertically. The house is fitted in the same material as the lighthouse and its roof is lined with zinc.
