The whole South Brittany coast: 90 towns and 388 beaches, with times, coefficient and spring tides.
South Brittany, from the Étel river to the Gulf of Morbihan, has gentler tides than the north — about 5 m at springs. The Gulf of Morbihan, an island-studded 'little sea', is crossed by intense tidal currents at its narrows. Quiberon and Carnac suit both swimming and foraging.

FAQ
Is the range smaller in South Brittany?
Yes: around 5 m at springs, versus over 10 in the north. The Gulf of Morbihan further reduces the range inside but speeds up currents at its narrows.
Can you swim in the Gulf of Morbihan?
Yes, on sheltered beaches, but beware tidal currents at the narrows. Swim preferably at slack water or neaps.
