Lorient Highlights

Lorient has a lively feel and its position by the sea gives access to some great beaches and activities. Its port continues to have an important role, which keeps Lorient’s centre full of life and brings the freshest in modern dining, fashion and entertainment to the town.

• Take in the surrounding scenery by walking along the coast or hiring a bike to explore the cycle paths in and around the town. Why not take a picnic on a sunny day and find a spot along the coast for a relaxing afternoon on the beach.
• For a glimpse of history, visit the impressive German submarine base. Looming on the landscape, it serves as a reminder of the town’s past and today is home to a museum which holds a real French submarine.
• Catch a ferry to Ile de Groix, where you will find stunning beaches and wildlife and the lazy, leisurely atmosphere that you would expect of such a small island.
• Visit in August to experience the annual Inter-Celtic festival, where thousands come from different countries to share and celebrate Celtic culture with dancing, music, and performances that delight the crowds and bring Lorient to life.
• Take a trip to the pretty medieval town of Quimperle nearby, where the grand houses, old churches and quaint squares delight its visitors and make for a lovely day out.
