Vannes's waters, in practice

The Gulf of Morbihan, a little inland sea strewn with islands and swept by some of the strongest currents in Europe. Wind-wise: sheltered water where the tide rules everything: you sail with the current, not against it.

Departures, day-trip classics and season

Departures: the Vannes harbour, at the end of its channel in the city centre. The local classics: the Île aux Moines and Île d’Arz, the Jument and Port-Navalo passages, and the oyster beds up the tidal rivers. High season: from May to September, with the Semaine du Golfe setting the gulf alight in odd years.
