Visit La Trinite sur Mer, Brittany
La Trinite-sur-Mer is a substantial port and harbour to the east of Carnac in Brittany facing on to Quiberon Bay. The town focusses equally on oyster production and on providing a pleasant atmosphere to attract pleasure boats to the harbour.
Exploring La Trinite-sur-Mer
Your visit to the town will focus along the seafront here in la Trinite-sur-Mer, which is a pleasant place to stroll along, with the town and its low houses, shops and cafes to one side and the sea and harbour to the other.
Harbour area
As you walk the main thing you will notice is just how extensive the pleasure harbour - the town runs for several hundred metres along the seafront and looks out on a veritable car park for boats and yachts of all sizes, stretching as far as the eye can see - with even more outside the main harbour area.
Not surprisingly the town also has a focus on boats with yacht supplies, boat hire and equipment all to hand.
La Trinite-sur-Mer is also home to one of Europes biggest regatas, which takes place here in Quiberon Bay each Easter.
In the town of Trinite-Sur-Mer
After walking along the waterfront, head a little way up the hill behind the shops towards the church and stroll through the streets a little while - apart from the unusual style church there are several streets with traditional Brittany cottages to explore here in one of the most pleasant of the small harbour towns in this part of Brittany.
Beaches
There are also several beaches close to hand, of which Kervillen is the most popular and nicely protected from the wind. The beach at Men Allen is also of interest - it is one of very few beaches in France that are convex shaped - a result of the directions of the currents either side of the port.
