Erquy (; ; Gallo: Erqi) is a commune in the Côtes-d'Armor department of Brittany in northwestern France.
Erquy is located in a cove of the Penthièvre coast bordered by cape Erquy on one side and a volcanic rock formation called pointe de la Heussaye on the other. Its harbour shelters a flotilla of about 80 trawlers, earning the town a reputation as the scallop "capital". The shellfish are collected in the Saint-Brieuc bay.
