Bénodet and the Glénan archipelago, heaven in Brittany
Of all the Breton coasts, that surrounding the seaside resort of Bénodet and the Glénan archipelago is, without a doubt, the most heavenly one. Not that others are less beautiful, but it has a particular attraction: the surrounding waves can take on, in some locations, turquoise reflections, thus resembling the islands of the Pacific more than the Iroise Sea, which is however nearby...…
Furthermore, why shouldn’t we compare the Glénan archipelago to Polynesia? By staying on the L'Escale Saint Gilles campsite, holidaymakers can get an idea of this, since the campsite is located right opposite these legendary Islands...
To go there, you simply have to take the boat from Bénodet. The crossing takes barely an hour. On-site, what better than hiring a sea kayak to go out and explore the Glénan archipelago, and draw alongside one of the most bewitching beaches of this archipelago comprised of 7 isles.
Seaside resort of first importance, Bénodet is located at the mouth of the Odet, the most beautiful river of Brittany. Upstream, you arrive in Quimper, capital of the Cornouaille. Its heritage is worth a visit, just like the closed city of Concarneau, at some twenty kilometres from the campsite.
At last, even if the magnificent cliffs of the point of Raz and the peninsula of Crozon are must-sees, it is also recommended to visit Pont Aven, charming village famous for its painters who lived there...
