Sailing (drifting) across the Bay of Quiberon on a beautiful if windless day

-

After the business of the lock , the tranquility of the Bay of Quiberon was wonderful. We only had around 25 miles to do and had a very gentle sail / motor across.
Quiberon itself is a pretty place with a wonderful, soft, sandy beach - had a very pleasant swim - with an eagle eye out for jelly fish - it's that time of year unfortunately. Found a lovely little crepe restaurant with a picturesque garden, where better to try the very traditional Breton curried mussels!!
