Whether you prefer the sea or an enchanted forest, Morbihan is a multi-faceted department with many things to explore. For nature lovers, I invite you to learn about the legend of King Arthur in the Forest of Brocéliande, or to drive down GR34 along the 900 km-long coastline or to visit the picturesque cities in the countryside of Morbihan, including Josselin, Rochefort en Terre, Le Faouët, etc.
For ocean lovers, climb aboard a sailboat to visit the Morbihan Islands—Belle-Ile-en-Mer, Houat, Hoëdic, Groix, Ile aux Moines and Ile d’Arz. Try to solve the mystery of the Alignments of Carnac and raise a glass when the regatta arrives in the port of Trinité Sur Mer.
There are so many activities all year long in southern Brittany. For hiking enthusiasts, explore Belle-Ile-en-Mer in 4 days or visit the forests of Brocéliande and Huelgoat. For those who prefer cycling, be sure to discover the green path along the canal of Nantes in Brest.
Feel like diving in the ocean? A number of diving clubs make it possible to explore the seabed in Morbihan. Or are you more of a surfing enthusiast? You can go surfing in Sainte Barbe, kitesurfing in Kerguelen, or hop aboard a sailboat to sail around Île de Groix—the possibilities are endless!
Morbihan is also an ideal destination for a relaxing stay. Take a break at the spa, treat yourself to a seafood platter with a view of the sea or tan on one of the fine sandy beaches on the Breton coast. The Bretons will spoil you and share their cultural heritage at events like the Inter-Celtic Festival of Lorient.
Morbihan? A destination filled with emotion!
