Visiting local markets allows you to discover the richness of the territory. Fishermen, market gardeners, bakers and others will allow you to prepare delicious meals with good products.
If you have any doubts, don't hesitate to ask questions, merchants are never stingy with good advice and good recipes! You will also find painters (the landscapes of the region offer magnificent subjects) and creators of objects, various jewels. The list of markets above is only a snapshot of the main markets in the area. The Hennebont market, for example, is very well known but a little far from the campsite.
The markets of Etel and Belz can also be worth it. For fish lovers, the auction is available at La Trinité sur Mer as well as some small fishermen. For shellfish, we recommend the Henry oysters right in front of the campsite (by kayak or paddle, otherwise you have to go around!!!).
