RÉSIDENCE VACANCES
Tourist activities to discover around Résidence Vacances Arzon - Golfe du Morbihan
Did you know that in Breton, “Mor-bihan” means “little sea”?
Staying at the Arzon – Golfe du Morbihan Resort***, you can fully enjoy the tourist activities on offer, including visits to sites of cultural significance, for a true taste of Brittany. Set off without further delay, for an authentic immersion in Breton country.
The Gulf of Morbihan, classed as one of the most beautiful bays in the world, welcomes you for an unforgettable holiday. Here amongst 17,000 hectares of ocean areas, scattered with islands and islets, there are plenty of cultural and historical treasures to discover. Between the long stretches of beach and the picturesque ports, you won’t cease to be amazed – there’s so much to discover. Perhaps you’d like to try a surfing session, a bike ride, a mini boat cruise or sailing, to explore the countless Arzon peninsulas? Take the time to experience the strength and power of the Breton coast - the currents rushing through the Gulf can reach 9 knots!
Anyone who loves history and heritage will admire the neolithic stones in the region, as well as the Carnac menhir stones, the Saint-Gildas de Rhuy Abbey, Succinio Castle, the Pen Castel Mill, and the Tumiac Burial Mound. Meander through the streets of Vannes, along the ports in the medieval city, and pop over to the large market of local produce! Enjoy the sights of the Cairn du Petit Mont, or the ports of Crouesty of Navalo. To recharge after all these Breton adventures, take advantage of preferential rates for a thalassotherapy (sea water therapy) session at the Miramar La Cigale spa. Once you discover Brittany, you’ll want to come back again and again!
