Fouesnant is a town in the Finistère
department of Brittany in northwestern France. It lies on the
south coast of Finistère, and is bordered by Bénodet
and Pleuven to the west, Saint-Évarzec to the north and
La Forêt-Fouesnant to the east. It is about 16 kms south
of Quimper. The town boasts 15km of coastline on its south side
with a long beach running west between the headlands of Beg-Meil
and Mousterlin. To the east at the top of the Baie de la Foretas
is the idyllic Cap-Coz, a popular tourist destination. The town
lies at the heart of a very fertile area of orchards and is regarded
as the source of the very best Breton cider. Every July this
is celebrated with the 'Fete des Pommiers'. Fouesnant hosts a
popular street market in and around the town square every Friday
morning. |

Places to visit in Brittany |
|
 |
Brittany sits in north-west France,
occupying a large peninsula separating the English Channel and
the Bay of Biscay. The town and port of Roscoff is served by
ferry links with England and Ireland. A long jagged coastline
is the region's great attraction, with magnificent beaches and
seaside resorts on the northern shores of Cote d'Emeraude and
Cote de Granit Rose. The south coast is gentler with wooded river
valleys, a milder climate and the prehistoric sites of Carnac
and the Golfe du Morbihan. The regional capital is Rennes and
the great castle at Fougeres is unmissable. |
