Loctudy is a popular sailing centre and fishing port.There is a large marina area with boat sales and repair yards.We stopped in the car park next to the marina. Watching people working on their yachts while we had a coffee.Then it was off to the town centre a short dive away to have a walk round.There is a square in front of the town hall where the Tuesday morning market is held.
The nearby Pointe de Loctudy is a great spot for a sunset stroll, while the nearby beach of Loctudy is a great place for a relaxing swim or a spot of sunbathing. Visitors can also take a guided boat tour around the port to explore its hidden coves and inlets.
