Brittany is a country in its own right with coasts made of sharp rocks against which the sea crashes violently, desolate islands with birds and winds as their only masters. Brittany is also a land of magic, of druids a hundred years old, where the 'Cervoise' (local beer) is poured generously. Tourists are drawn to it because of its well preserved environment, this is a place with wonderful landscapes shaped by the winds and tides, narrow paths to walk along and where to dream carelessly for hours on end. An authentic country keeping in its soil memories that stood the test of time: many celtic remains can be found throughout the land. Its people are warm and welcoming and have passed on the passion for folklore and the respect for traditions to their children.
In the field of gastronomy, you will be tempted by a whole range of cakes, biscuits and 'ble noir' pancakes served with local ciders.
From Saint-Malo to Carnac, Brittany is a crown with many jewels for you to discover!

The Cote d'Armor has a landscape of coves and fine sandy beaches that are ideal for swimming. Come and discover the 'Cote Sauvage' (wild coast) walking along coastal paths starting from the Pointe du Croisic towards Sables Menus beach, then Port-Lin leading to the 3 beaches in Batz sur Mer (Surfers'Paradise) and Le Pouliguen with its 20 odd caves that can only be seen at low tide.
The bay of La Baule is considered as one of the most beautiful in Europe. Pornichet, Saint Marc sur Mer, Saint-Nazaire are three other places of Interest. The wild coast extends further north to Pointe Castelli and Pointe Merquel where it changes aspect and offers some fantastic views like Pen-Be bay
