Concarneau

 

Concarneau, one of the top French fishing ports is within easy distance of Benodet. This wonderful, medieval town is is also called the closed city, built around a fortified city built in the 14th century and reconstructed by Vauban in the 17th century. In actuality it is a fortress built on an island that is connected to the mainland by two bridges. It is very nice to roam the old, narrow alleyways. You can also visit the city walls and watch the fishing boats return from a day of fishing for tuna in the two harbors. The pleasure port and beaches offer tourists many activities. Don't forget to visit the Fishing Museum inside the walled city !
