The 4th largest town in the Morbihan, Ploemeur in south-Brittany opens onto two worlds: the coast with its beaches and wealth of nautical activities (sailing, diving, fishing, etc.), the little ports of Kerroc'h and Lomener and its rich countryside (chapels, fountains, crosses, etc.). It has undeniable charm. One quarter of its land is devoted to rural activities, offering walking and cycling fans all the facilities for a very pleasant holiday. Ploemeur is a town of 17 747 inhabitants with numerous shops and plenty of cultural, sports and leisure activities. This is a lively town, with enchanting concerts and shows all year round, especially in the summer during the "Jeudis de Ploemeur".
