Our land: "le Pays d'Auray"

Auray is a bustling little town with a lively and colourful market twice a week,
the most important taking place every Monday.
The old harbour of Saint Goustan should not be missed, with its chapels and timbered houses.

Locmariaquer, on the coast , lies at the entrance to the Morbihan Gulf and is another major megalithic site.
The Quiberon Peninsula and the Côte Sauvage (Wild Coast) are a foretaste of the islands just off the coast: Belle Ile, Houat and Hoedic.

There is plenty to discover inland too. Camors, just north of Auray, boasts vast and varied woodland, while Sainte Anne d'Auray is a major religious centre with an imposing basilica to which flock hosts of pilgrims each year.

It is a land steeped in history with the mysterious standing stones in Carnac, and a place where the sea is omnipresent: beaches of fine sand, either sheltered within Quiberon Bay, or more open on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean; fishing harbours or yachting centres  which tempt the visitor to explore the nearby islands.
