Holidays in Brittany

Brittany's beautiful inland areas are steeped in Celtic charm and magic. Ancient customs are enforced and traditional dresses are worn proudly. The canal Nantes à Brest is rich in historical treasures and spectacular landscapes.

Fairytale castles like the one in Josselin are reflected in the water while the boat is gliding by. Dock the boat in Malestroit with lovely houses from the 15th century, or in La Gacilly, home to many skilled artisans. Redon is just like a little Venice and was already established in the year 832 A.D.

A pleasant climate with mild summer days makes this region a perfect sailing area.

Brittany is perfect for beginners in boating.
