The only one of Brittany's départements to have a Breton name, Morbihan is also the only one with a purely southern coastline. It gets its name, which means "little sea", from the Gulf of Morbihan – a huge lagoon-like stretch of water, dotted with hundreds of islands, which opens out into the "Great Sea" of the Atlantic. |
With a warmer climate than the rest of Brittany, much of Morbihan has an almost sub-tropical feel, especially around the Gulf and along the estuaries like the Vilaine that cut deeply into its 300 miles of rocky shore and beaches of fine sand.
The mildness of its weather, and the hundreds of creeks and harbours along its shores, makes the Morbihan an ideal holiday destination for sailing enthusiasts of every degree of skill. |
