What could be better than discovering the city on foot to start your stay? Take the ramparts to the Brest castle which today houses the National Maritime Museum.
Depending on the weather, take a stroll in the Jardin de l'Académie before continuing to the Marina for a drink. Then walk along the sea on the Digue Lapérouse to admire the boats and meet the cuttlefish fishermen.
Meet at the Moulin Blanc marina for a boat trip. Opt for a cruise on a sailboat or catamaran to discover the coastline or the Crozon peninsula.
La Recouvrance, Brest's ambassador sailboat, offers, for example, sunset outings with an aperitif buffet on board or day trips with a picnic.
The more athletic among you can also rent a kayak or a paddleboard and paddle as a duo.
If you are in Brest on Sunday morning, don't miss this institution. The Saint Louis market stretches from rue de Lyon to the Halles Saint Louis via the church car park.
You can stock up on local products and enjoy a slice of Kig Ha Farz, the Breton pot au feu, kouign amman or far breton.

The line operates every day, sometimes even until 1 a.m. The opportunity to discover the lights at night.
By the ocean, it is impossible to ignore shellfish. You absolutely must taste a freshly caught seafood platter!

For an authentic but more rustic atmosphere, go to the Crabe Marteau also located at the commercial port. This restaurant offers a fisherman's menu that varies depending on the weather and the fishing.
Finally, you still have the cruise and seafood option aboard the Brestoa. The Compagnie Maritime de la Rade offers tastings of oysters from the Keraliou fishpond or dormeur on a cruise.
What better way to end the day than to relax with your loved one in a wellness area with a swimming pool heated to 28 degrees, a hammam, a sauna and a balneotherapy.
