Sud Goëlo Nautical Centre
Fancy a trip for two in a double kayak? Or get carried away on a discovery or sport catamaran? It's all here, offered at the 2 nautical bases in Saint-Quay- Portrieux, Binic-Étables-sur-Mer and a rental nautical spot on the Plage du Moulin. During the school holidays, there are courses for children aged 5 and over, including catamaran, windsurfing and dinghy sailing. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced sailor, the fun starts at the end of the quay.
