30 minutes drive will take you to the golden beaches of the Morbihan coast.Brittany has the longest coastline of any department in France - so take your pick!
If you want a conventional swimming pool - the nearest ones are at Guer, Serent and the all singing all dancing pool in Redon
Carnac
The beaches at Carnac are clean and well looked after. Miles of golden sand await you. Carnac itself is a pretty seaside town with plenty of restaurants and places to eat - seafood is a speciality. You can also take the little train that takes you around the town and to the famous neolithic maegaliths
Damgan
Where the French all tend to holiday..The town is right on the beach front so a small stroll to find places to eat. There’s also a large play area just off the beach with swings, slides and roundabouts.
Whether you want a busy beach or a quiet spot , Damgan has both to choose from.
La Baule
Massive (huge) bay with sandy beach. Very clean and scenic. Loads to do : water sports, bars, restaurants and shops. really nice town to walk round and there`s a market most days in the summer. La Baule is known as the Saint Tropaz of Brittany - the shops and people are very chic!
Sarzeau
On the southern side of the Golf du Morbihan the coastline is a mixture of dramatic granite clifftops and sheltered sandy coves. You can take a great walks along the cliffs then climb down to a hidden beach, relax and go for a swim.
Auray
Although there is a beach near Auray we recommend a trip down to the estuary and port (35 miles drive). It is absolutely stunning. You can go for a really nice walk along the river and then go and have lunch in one of the numerous quay side restaurants. Mussels, scallops or oysters are the dish of the day..Auray has a large market on a Monday - but you need to get there early.
