The pearl of Cornwall
“Bénodet is Brittany as it has been for thousands of years. A luminous Brittany, adorned in its finest attire, singing and dancing its traditions to joyful tunes.”
Bénodet, now a renowned seaside resort on the Cornouaille coast, has always been recognized for its geographical location at the mouth of the Odet River, which is navigable as far as Quimper. Its location has earned it the Breton name “tête de l’odet” (head of the Odet).
Bénodet by the sea
Bénodet is a living ode to the ocean and the river. Here, maritime tradition borders on a way of life, like a precious legacy connecting generations of sailors. Let yourself be swept away by this passion. The seaside museum will tell you all about the history and atmosphere of sea bathing and sailing along the Odet River.
Bénodet leisure activities
Sailing, kayaking, golf, tennis, horse riding, hiking, thalassotherapy… Sea and nature bathing, escape and relaxation, Bénodet lends itself to all kinds of discoveries.
It is also the departure point for trips up the Odet River aboard L’Odet boats, during which you will discover beautiful residences, as well as banks lined with rhododendrons in April and May and exuberant flora and fauna.
