Camaret is a small fishing village at the Westernmost tip of Brittany. The Crozon peninsula, where Camaret is situated, looks like a granite anchor thrust into the sea.
The village itself used to be a very active fishing port - tuna fish and lobster. Camaret fishing-boats would leave for months to fish along the coasts of Mauritania.
Today, Camaret has become a pleasant tourist resort, invigorating at Easter, sunny and crowded during the summer, but always charming. The village itself is small, but the peninsula offers a beautiful variety of sights - rugged granite on its southern shores, lusher greenery in the north, and towns and villages which each have their own character and atmosphere..
