Serviced Apartments in Carnac

Carnac is a commune beside the Gulf of Morbihan located on the south coast of Brittany in north-western France. Carnac is found on a narrow peninsula exactly halfway between the town of Vannes and the seaside resort of Quiberon. Carnac is divided into two centres: Carnac-Plage (the beachfront) and Carnac-Ville. Carnac is famous for the Carnac stones and for its fine beaches, which are a highlight for many tourists staying in Carnac holiday rentals in the region.

The area is home to five beaches, including la Grande Plage, Plage Men Dû, and Beaumer.
Carnac is famous for its 3,000 prehistoric standing stones. The stones were believed to be hewn from local rock and erected by Brittany’s pre-Celtic residents. The stones are perfectly aligned in straight lines. The precise date of these renowned stones is hard to determine yet it is thought they were aligned around 3300 BC.

Once you have explored all the Carnac has to offer, you can visit nearby La Trinité-sur-Mer by road or by bicycle. La Trinité-sur-Mer used to belong to the Carnac commune. Other neighbouring communes you may wish to take a trip to include Crac'h, Erdeven, Ploemel and Plouharnel.

Carnac is particularly popular during the summer months as the wind and waves attract sailors and windsurfers. Carnac plays host to the École de Voile de Carnac which is a sailing and windsurfing school. It provides lessons and rentals to keen sailors and windsurfers, regardless of their experience. The Bay of Quiberon offers you with ideal conditions for sailing and entices those who were initially reluctant to try their hand at this sport. If you do not wish to have fun in the water, you can enjoy watching all the activity from the comfort of the shore.

Saint-Colomban Beach, situated in Carnac-Plage, is popular with windsurfers staying in Carnac serviced flats. Its location grants strong winds deriving from the west of the region. Other beaches in Carnac provide equally good facilities for windsurfers.

Carnac-Plage is home to a variety of bars and clubs, perfect for young tourists seeking for an upbeat night out. Before heading out for the evening, you may wish to stop and take pleasure in trying famous Brittany cuisine. Palourdes, baked clams packed with garlic, herbs and shallots, are a favourite in the restaurants here. They are best enjoyed with a local white wine.
Alternatively, you could try Breton Cotriade, a fish stew composed from monkfish which is mixed together with onions, garlic, parsley and potatoes.
