Brittany is a region in North-West of France.

It is made of 4 departments. Ours is in the South of Brittany: the Morbihan.

HERE

In fact, this name « Morbihan » comes from Breton language. It

means « little sea », because of the « Golfe du Morbihan », which is a

sound coming in the Atlantic Ocean.

The heart of people in Brittany is divided between love of land and

love of sea.

Seaside in Brittany

Our tradition is a tradition of sea men and farmers. Perhaps, you

know a few sea races, whose winners were often Bretons.

Eric Tabarly was a famous sea man, and his boat « Pen Duick » is very

famous too.

The attachment of Bretons to their region allows to preserve wonderful

areas.

It has also a link with a strong breton culture and a real breton

identity.
