France is a super popular travel destination. It’s a big country with a huge variety between the different areas in terms of history, culture, and scenery. Brittany is a region in the northwest of the country with a distinct identity and atmosphere. There’s plenty of beautiful coastline, as well as the most picturesque towns you can imagine. Here are just three that would make ideal vacation destinations.

Perros-Guirec

This charming seaside town is located along the Pink Granite Coast which is a stunning area, with brilliantly blue water which surrounds the pale pink granite boulders and islands which are covered in luscious greenery. Perros-Guirec is the perfect place to access coastal walks or simply sit on the beach and enjoy the views, and the sweet town center is ideal for wandering around and soaking in the ambiance. 

Fougères

The new town area of Fougères is nice to walk through and has plenty of shops and restaurants. However, if you head up the hill to the old town then you’ll be transported back in time. The winding medieval streets with cobbled stones gradually lead to the old church and then to the huge old castle with its walls and ramparts to wander through. There are lovely parks in which you can rest and take in the lovely views. 

Pont-Scorff

Built along the river Scorff this sweet old town is the perfect balance of pretty buildings and streets with the beautiful nature and greenery around it. You can learn about the interesting history of the town and the area while wandering through, and there’s also an exciting art scene to discover.

Brittany, France is a gorgeous region of the country located on the most North-Western coast. There is such a rich history in the Peninsula of the past Celtic culture, combined with modern France society. There are many famous landmarks and Medieval towns to visit, along with incredible nature sites, walks, and beaches. Although Brittany is just across from Great Brittain from the English channel, it is a completely unique place that you must visit at least once in your life.

What to do

Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer is a small beach in the region but has some of the best walking paths. There is nothing like walking above the waves and seeing the natural vegetation as you go. The hike is fairly easy but will take a couple of hours, but there are also many places just above the path to stop and have a picnic.

Saint-Malo is a gorgeous walled port city. Although it was bombed during World War II, it still remains one of the most beautiful cities in the world. While you’re there, be sure to visit the chateau of Saint-Malo which has been converted into a museum. There are also many forts to visit there.

Just across the ocean from Saint-Malo is the beach town of Dinard. This is a very popular destination for people all around the world since the 19th century because of its beautiful blue-green waters and pristine beaches. The town was really shaped by Saint-Malo because the shipping merchants who landed there built all the infrastructure and made it the town it is today. Now you will find many beach-side restaurants and bars all overlooking the gorgeous sea. You can also go on a walk right next to the sea on the path.

Rennes is the capital of Brittany and is a small city with a lot of history. The city is famous for the architecture, which are half-timbered houses built in the Medieval times. While you’re there, visit the Musée des Beaux-Arts, which displays many famous painter’s works such as Botticelli, Picasso, and Rubens. Rennes also has Museum of Brittany, which gives the history the region. What’s fun about Rennes is that all of the street signs are in French and Breton, which is the type of Celtic language the people used to speak in the region.

What to Eat

Brittany is especially famous in France and around the world for two things; crepes and cidre. Although you can find crepes all over the country, Brittany is known for having the best ones. People say that Brittany is actually the birthplace of crepes back in the 12th century. When you taste one, you will see that there is slight differences in comparison to the crepes found around France.

Cidre is a special kind of cider made in the region as well. There all sorts of ciders, some very bitter, and some sweeter. The colors of the cider range widely as well from light yellow all the way to brown. Cidre has shown up in history since at least the 6th century, so it is definitely not something to miss out on in Brittany.
