La Foret Fouesnant was about a 15min drive from our rented Gite.We usually finished up here after a day of sightseeing you can park in the centre. Where the Sunday market is held behind a low wall overlooking the estuary.We liked to sit here with a coffee watching the tide come in.

The town is mainly one long road with a few streets off it there is a good selection of shops cafes and bars.The tourist office was a short distance from the old church if you needed any information.You can drive along the estuary on a narrow road to Port la Foret there is a marina and sailing club there
