  4. 5 good reasons to come in spring

Spring is the perfect time to enjoy the mild, calm climate of the Bigouden region. The temperatures are ideal for outdoor activities.

Here are 5 good reasons to come to the Bigouden region, although there are many more!

A whole host of activities

Theocean is starting to warm up, and it’s impossible to resist taking the first dips of the year.

The water sports centres are reopening their doors to the public and offering equipment hire: stand up paddle or kayak for a stroll on the water, catamaran and optimists to enjoy the breeze and the list goes on.

      For nature Green and flowery

      We won’t be forcing you to put on your shoes for long to enjoy the brand new sunshine! Nature is wonderful at this time of year.

      You’ll be enchanted by the variety of flowers that line the paths of the Cornouaille Botanical Park in Combrit, filling the air with their delicious fragrance.

      You can also take to the short and medium-sized footpaths to fill up on colours and smells, either along the coast on the GR® 34 or through the Bigouden countryside for a rural feel.

      For the mild climate

      Our coastal region benefits from an oceanic climate that makes for particularly mild temperatures.

      Thanks to the Gulf Stream, the sea stays relatively warm in winter, but quickly warms up as soon as the fine weather arrives.

      Finally, it’s time to put your nose to the grindstone ! The sun sets in the west and saves its last rays for Finistère… The result is longer days than elsewhere in France.

          To explore places Less frequented than in summer

          You’ll be the first privileged visitors of the season to discover cultural venues that attract many visitors or to visit the new exhibitions of the year.

          Outside the high season, you’ll be able to enjoy them exclusively, almost on your own!

          For holidays rested & reboosted

          Our destination is particularly attractive to lovers of nature and wide open spaces. Here, you’ll find peace and quiet within yourself, helped by a wild, unspoilt environment.

          You’ll leave recharged, your batteries recharged, thanks to long walks outside or outdoor activities.
