In France, Brittany, Western part of France, is a whole new world.
On the ocean’s edge, coastal Brittany is a land of gusts, swells and storms – for thousands of years, Brittany’s shores have been sculpted by the tides twice each day.
It is a land of harbors, islands, creeks, estuaries and beaches.
Inland Brittany is a place of magic, myths, legends, towns of character, rivers and canals.
Finally, Brittany is a world of tradition with its language, customs, cathedrals, parish enclosures, Pardon ceremonies and festivals. Brittany has all the ingredients for an unforgettable holiday experience!
