Larmor Gwened beach park of Vannes !

Posted in Bretagne, France

Well today is my Dad 87th birthday and we took him out for a ride and eat out in one of his favorites KFC! Yes! leave it to an American to still cling to his old tastes! Anyway, he was pleased and on our way there just to kill time I drove into unknown territory even in Vannes !! Voilà two surprises in a row, I tell you my beautiful Morbihan has it all !!!

I went around the Le Port harbor area and continue along the canal marina that goes into the Gulf of Morbihan, nothing new here. Then, I cut into rue du Commerce straight ahead to turn right for the first time into rue de Larmor Gwened, and this surprising took me to the Larmor Gwened beach park !! A find! By the way Larmor is breton for the coast side of the land,  but Gwened is the breton word for Vannes! So it is like coastal vannes !

Larmor Gwened has a nice natural beach, playground and picnic table. Free car parking area. You can go to the end, after the football field, cruising in the moors, especially in summer. Expanse of grass with shade. View of the Gulf of Morbihan. For info the Stade De Larmor Gwened Football field is natural grass with 2 changing rooms with showers.

All along the shores of the Gulf of Morbihan, this space reveals many beaches nestled in small coves, a reed bed and a large marsh area near Séné on the other side. Even thus it was closed you have a good review restaurant here the L’eauthentik with location of 24 Rue de Larmor Gwened.  The RestaurantGuru reviews on the L’eauthentik resto :https://restaurantguru.com/lEAUTHENTIK-Vannes

You can get there on bus no 7 KICEO of Vannes stop Arcal and then about a 5 minutes walk. We shall return, we weill bring our dog Rex next time he will love it! and try the restaurant! Another nice area in the many choices around my beautiful Morbihan and wonderful sublime Vannes. Hope you enjoy the post and do seek out these experiences when in the area.

And remember, happy travels, good health, and many cheers to all !!!

I am a lover of travels to Europe , Americas , Africa and Asia as well ,who like to share my experiences of the last 53 years with the world, visiting so far 81 countries; living in 6, working in 5, and Citizen of 4, speaking fluently 4 languages. I can deal with sports especially football/soccer and love music, arts, wine collector/drinker, and go out to restaurants, and just visit the world. My background comes all the way from Candelaria and Pajara in Tenerife, Spain where my grandparents came from ;not knowing each other then, to Punta Brava, west of Havana, Cuba. There , my parents born in Cuba met and later on I was born there too. 100% guanche (annexed Tenerife to Spain on April 10 ,1496). I left Cuba as many have to Madrid, Spain where I lived for 4 years. Then, move to Perth Amboy ,New Jersey USA (living there 13 yrs) ; where I completed high school, became a US Citizen, learned to drive a car, and learned English. Afterward, went to the university in Florida, ERAU, and upon graduation decided to moved there to Ormond by the Sea, near Daytona Beach, finally moving North Miami, then Hialeah, then another moved to Silver Lakes division in Miramar, Broward county, Florida; in Florida I lived a total of 18 years. Finally , moved to France in 2003 ,Versailles call me for its royalty, and working in Paris was great. It was time to seek frontiers again and moved to Brech near Auray, Morbihan in Brittany , and later move to not too far Pluvigner. Total so far in France has been 20 years, and counting. Moving average a home every 5.5 years hopefully this will be my last. Cheers All rights reserved.
