Located at the western tip of Brittany, in the Finistère department, Brest is a major port city facing the Atlantic Ocean. With around 140,000 residents, it is a key naval, scientific, and academic hub in France. Heavily bombed during World War II, Brest was rebuilt around its harbor, ports, and maritime heritage. Today, it's known for its strong nautical identity, its research institutions, and large maritime events.

ust across the bay, the Crozon Peninsula offers breathtaking coastal scenery and excellent hiking trails. It’s a must for nature lovers.

At the heart of Brest’s accessibility is Brest Bretagne Airport, located just 10 km from the city centre. The airport offers direct connections to major French cities such as Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Toulouse, as well as international destinations across Europe. Its efficient structure ensures a smooth travel experience, while its growing network of flights positions it as a regional hub, ideal for connecting flights whether for business or leisure. From Brest, travellers can easily continue their journey to key European cities, Mediterranean coasts, or cultural capitals.
