Stopover English Channel and Celtic Sea

Making a stopover in the English Channel and the Celtic Sea involves coming together in an ambiance reminiscent of Irish and English ports ! During the day, there will be demonstrations of smoking herring, an exhibition about a traditional fishing boat called a Galway Hooker, as well as workshops about ropework. 

The evening’s line-up is concocted with the Festival de Cornouaille.
