Curiosities of Bénodet !!!

Posted in Bretagne, Europe, France

Let me tell you a bit about Bénodet, in the Finistére dept 29 of my lovely Bretagne and in my belle France. As the coasts around here are all wonderful. There is so much to see in architecture and history but the beach is tops, We made the best of the day and visited other towns.  However, Bénodet was it, as a five stars beach area. Therefore, let me tell you again about the curiosities of Bénodet !!! Hope you enjoy it as I,

Bénodet is easily reach from my house; about 94 km and a little more than an hour along the N165 to exit that tells you Bénodet, here take the road D44 and just follow the signs ! For this road warrior an easy ride and beautiful scenery along the coast, This will be a new post on a wonderful stay and walk we love it, the sea oh the sea and in Brittany tradition and winning all over is a must to visit, These are new pictures on a new road warrior trip by yours truly !

Under the slogan Bénodet, bonne idée or Bénodet, good idea, take a ride into the old port and town of Bénodet, with the little train going by its corniche de l’estuaire to the corniche de la mer, Along the ocean and to the point saint gilles to the fort de Coq. From mid-May to mid-september from the old port of Bénodet, board for a 40 minute guide tower with musical background. Enjoy mythical and unmissable places in the resort such as the plage du trez and its casino, Pointe Saint-Gilles, the Corniche de l’Estuaire and the Riviere de l’Odet… This discovery of Bénodet will also have surprises in store for you, such as the history of the Villa Magdelen with Morish architecture and nicknamed by the Locals “The Minaret”. You will also be observed to observe the coq and pyramide lighthouses, the boats on the legendary odet river…This is of course, the Celtitrain, a one time wonderful idea!

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.
