Well starting the season early was the right thing to do. We left Morlaix on the 4th May and found Treguier almost empty but had a lovely welcome from Jean-Jacque the harbour master. We like Treguier as we have made many friends there and of course there is the Auberge Tregor a lovely resturant opposite the church up an alley on the left. A typical lunch from the 4 choices on the board will cost you about €22 and thats for a 3 course meal with wine and coffee for 2 people.
Next stop and a first for us was St Quay Portrieux an all tide marina which was empty when we arrived on a beautiful day with sun and little wind. On arrival we were met and taken to our finger pontoon which are now 8.5 metres long so no more acrobatics to get off the boat. The heads and showers are about the best in brittany very clean but expensive as €2 for a shower and you only have 8 mins from the time the coing drops. There are some lovely walks around the coast line and a little town where there is a market on Friday and another on the quay on Mondays but smaller. we paid €124 for a week out of season which is good for this quality of marina. We were blockaded by the fishermen who were complaining about the price of diesel as it has gone from €500 a day for the bigger boats to €1000 a day but they said if we wanted to leave they would let us we decided to stay and suport them. A must visit place.
