The Port Navalo, part IV !!!

Posted in Bretagne, Europe, Food and Wine, France

And voilà this is another peninsula in my lovely Morbihan of my gorgeous Bretagne in my belle France. I come here often and as often do not take pictures, sort of like a local habit nowdays I guess. This time wanted to put new pictures into my blog and new text of beautiful Port Navalo ,part IV !!! Hope you enjoy the post as I.

Let me tell you, this is a harbor area with the sea, beaches, boats of all sorts and great seafood restaurant to boot. WE love it!!! It is about an hour from my house. I have written before on Port Navalo as said we come here often ,and were again this week. This coastal resort offers a panorama of Quiberon and Locmariaquer as well as the interior of the Gulf. The harbor of Port Navalo and its traditional port. Formerly animated by fishing, it is today a holiday resort. The view dominates the currents of the narrow gully which marks the entrance to the gulf of Morbihan and its islands which close the horizon.

The Association de Sauvegarde du Patrimoine Arzonnais or Association for the Safeguarding of Arzon Heritage is base here ,It keeps the safeguarding, enhancement and sharing of Arzon heritage, public or private: housing, maritime, agricultural, religious, environmental, historical, megalithic, and sociological.

The Bureau des ports et mouillages d’Arzon or the Arzon Ports and Anchorages Office is base here,same building as above.  This port also hosts five shipping companies offering cruises on the Gulf of Morbihan, with or without stopovers, to the Île aux Moines, the Île d’Arz, Gavrinis and the Auray river. Other destinations such as Belle-Île-en-Mer, Houat and Hoëdic are also possible from Port-Navalo. Some companies also offer regular crossings between Port-Navalo and Locmariaquer from April to the end of September.

The Cinéma La Locomotive at Place de la Gare takes its name from the locomotive that connected Vannes to Port-Navalo, a town of Arzon, passing through all the towns of the Rhuys peninsula. Today, the cinema continues to connect the inhabitants of the Rhuys peninsula through culture, films and events shown throughout the year in its two cinemas. Since 2020, La Locomotive has been an Art House cinema. This classification values ​​the cultural contribution of cinema in its territory for all its spectators. Since 2022, spectators can also watch operas and shows from the Comédie-Française in the dark rooms of La Locomotive.

I have told you about the La Grande Cale resto on 29 rue Général de Gaulle which is actually sitting between the big beach and the port walking distance leaisurely easy. A pleasure to tell you, good food and great views. We have tried ,recommended, There are other to try eventually such as Coté Mer ,Le P’tit Zeph, and Le Grand Largue,
