The Rhuys Peninsula in 1 day


We start with a short walk in the surroundings of Saint-Armel and admire the gulf by following the coastal path from the Lasné salt marshes to Le Passage. A visit to Suscinio Castle is then a must. After discovering this medieval beauty, go daydreaming or cool off on one of the magnificent beaches of the south coast; en route, stop by and say hello to the abbey of Saint-Gildas de Rhuys, a key place in the history of the peninsula. Then make a stop at the Museum of Arts, Trades and Commerce, before continuing to the Port du Crouesty for a visit to the Cairn du Petit Mont then Port-Navalo and its lighthouse to feast your eyes. Once your eyes are full, it's your stomach that you need to think about! Why not go and taste some oysters directly from the producer, at Tour-du-Parc in Saint-Armel or at the tip of Bénance?

It's already better ! As we have more time to discover the ""must-sees"" of the peninsula mentioned above, we can get there by bike! The same goes for the beaches, you have more time to look for ""your"" ideal beach: long stretches of sand facing the Atlantic or a more intimate cove on the gulf side. A gulf that alone deserves another day, aboard a boat, to see the islands and islets hidden there and to make a long stopover at Île aux Moines or Île d'Arz .

The Rhuys Peninsula in 1 week

Now, you can not only explore the "must-sees" by bike, but also start crisscrossing the peninsula on foot to discover a more secret, more intimate Rhuys. The ideal is to alternate the discovery of the peninsula with a day on a more distant island (like Belle-Ile or Houat), a trip to Vannes for the big market on Wednesday or Saturday and to spend another day on the water, in the gulf, whether in a kayak, on a cruise ship or operating an old rig. Also enjoy an ""outdoor"" day by trying a treetop adventure course, a first dive, a paddle-board ride, a round or introduction to golf, an ornithological outing...
