Beaches in Vannes (56000) France - advise, map and photos

Vannes is a resort located on the south coast of Brittany, in the Gulf of Morbihan. This city has a rich and fascinating heritage that attracts many visitors in summer. The ramparts and the gardens of la Garenne are very pretty and host numerous festivals. One can discover the church in a small alley but the port is the popular tourist destination. An attractive promenade and many picturesque houses border it in the heart of the city. The Cathedral, located opposite the Museum of Fine Arts, deserves a closer look.

The beaches in Vannes are very popular even though they are far from being the best in Morbihan. Conleau, preserved and easily accessible, is the most popular. A swimming pool with seawater is located nearby, as well as the Nature Reserve of Marais de Sené, an ornithological site where one can, thanks to observatories, observe the evolution of a rich fauna. One can also explore Ile aux Moines, enjoy its unique flora, delve into its history and admire the houses of captain and cottages, or even push on to the bay of Quiberon. The fortress of Largoët is not far away and offers adventurers the highest dungeon in France and the monument of Gavrinis is the most famous dolmen in the area.
