Brittany: Ports, Islands and Megaliths

Explore South Brittany over 15 days, from Morbihan to Finistère, through medieval towns, harbours, megaliths and wild Atlantic landscapes.

This 15-day itinerary offers you a complete immersion between the charm of Morbihan and the wild beauty of Finistère.

Autumn (September/Early October) is the ideal time to travel there with family or friends: prices are low, the sites are quiet (the Breton Indian Summer), and the golden light is magnificent.

Your journey begins in Morbihan, then continues in South Finistère, between cities, ports, megaliths and lighthouses that reveal all the strength of the Breton coast.

Explore medieval towns, stroll along ports, explore beaches… This guide is your ideal roadmap to fully enjoy South Brittany.
