Activities, Surroundings

Between land and sea, the country of Quimperlé offers you a multiple choice of activities for your holidays.

Land ocean, Moëlan sur Mer, is very proud of its 3 picturesque ports nestled at the bottom of its rias, which live to the rhythm of the tides; ; Bélon, Brigneau et Merrien. Discover them on a paddleboard or kayak... Sail on a sparkling shades of blues and greens that are quite surprising. Take advantage of the sports offered by the ocean, surfing, windsurfing...or relax on the sand facing the ocean on the various beaches: Kerfany les Pins, Trenez, le Pouldu...In the distance, you will see the Groix island, with remarkable natural sites or the Glénan archipelago, the Breton Caribbean, an invitation to contemplation and idleness.

Let's leave the sea for walks on the coastal paths and the mythical GR34 which offers you its most beautiful landscapes. Possibilities of walks on horseback, or by bike (greenways) in the neighboring forests (Domanial forest of Clohars-Carnoët).

Discover the historical heritage of the region, its chapels, its menhirs and its dolmens, its museums (museum of Pont-Aven and its paintings, fishing museum in Concarneau, Quimper and its museum of fine arts, the Henri Henriot earthenware factories)…
