Lorient, France

Lorient, is a commune and a seaport on the south coast of Brittany on the Atlantic ocean. It lies on an immense natural harbour protected from the ocean by the Île de Groix and strategically located at the junction of the rivers Scorff, Ter and Blavet.

There are not many tourist attractions in Lorient itself, however a boat trip, either up the estuary towards Hennebont or out to the e Groix, is recommended. This 8km-long steep-sided rock is a somewhat smaller version of Belle-Île, and holds some gorgeous beaches which encourage day-trippers.
