This experience, in a nutshell

Departure from Vannes, a historic city in the centre of which we will be moored.

Crossing the Gulf of Morbihan, with a possible stopover at the Ile d'Arz and the Ile aux Moines, also very typical, and very different. We can explore these quiet islands (without a car) on foot or by bike, and taste the local oyster production.



Out to sea towards the bay of Quiberon, a magnificent body of water to tack in calm conditions. Head for Houat, Hoedic, the Ponant Islands, not to be missed with their wild landscape and their tiny village. It is possible to return to La Trinité, a port of tradition and ocean racing. This is the place to admire beautiful boats of all kinds.



Exit through the Teignouse Strait in the direction of Belle-île. The stopover in Sauzon is worth two days, and gives us time to visit this superb island by bike, with its cliff landscapes, its beaches, its huge lighthouse and its bocage countryside.

Then we will reach a smaller island: Groix, also very typical and rich in a particular nautical history. From there, depending on the weather, we can push on to the Glénan archipelago, the city of Concarneau which deserves a stopover to visit its walled city.



The return trip is made with a stopover in Port Louis at the entrance to the harbour of Lorient. This picturesque harbour allows us to visit the citadel, and also the offshore racing base located at the submarine base. There's something for everyone!

Then we will take the road south towards the Gulf of Morbihan with a stopover at the Ile aux Moines to enter with my morning tide at the port of Vannes.

Our itinerary

This cruise will satisfy those who may not have much sailing experience, but want to try life on a sailboat under supervision. It's an active, participative holiday. A hand to steer, participate in the manoeuvres, and also for the cooking and washing up is required. We will sail an average of four hours a day. If you like group life, exchanges in a relaxed atmosphere, and if you are curious to discover, both nature and culture, there are many points of interest. And travelling along these coasts by sea is even more wonderful!

The itinerary may be subject to changes due to weather conditions and/or technical or logistical reasons, in order to ensure safety and a pleasant sailing experience for all participants.

At first, from my son Guglielmo , a special thanks to J.B. for his prompt interest and kind concern when we had problems to get in touch because of my smartphone (next time better an e sim). Than, even if i'm not exactly the best guest to have on bord, i received any kind of support to make me feel confortable and enjoy my stay.. You'll find someone who loves his job and who knows how to do it at best. Really good experience thanks also to Adriana, LuLu e Franco. See you soon!

Very nice adventure at sea for this great first for me with Jean Baptiste and the other teammates: Jean Baptiste is passionate, calm, gentle and very pedagogical for the neophyte that I was. Adventure in the middle of nature to discover the Breton islands which are nuggets, also a human adventure on the magnificent sailboat that cuts through the waves and heels as soon as the wind picks up. What a joy to be at one with all the elements: the sails, the wind, the sun, the waves and the luck of having sailed with the dolphins. Can't wait to be able to return to the Mango with my captain Jean Baptiste to cast off again!
