Next stop La Trinite sur mer and the Carnac alignments
We hadn't visited La Trinite but had heard that it was a regional centre for yachting. We really enjoyed our stay. It's a very lively place with huge trimarans sailed by French national heroes based here. This place really underlines the fact that the French really do love sailing at all levels. It feels like a more inclusive version of Cowes. Sailing feels like it is for everybody (not just the well heeled) and boats of all ages and sizes are sailed with passion.
We also used it as a base to go on our first cycling tour as the Carnac Alignments are close by. Seeing these by bike is ideal as they are stretched over a few kilometres and the parking is difficult. Very different to Stonehenge. After a scorching couple of days on Houat we were glad the the weather was warm and cloudy for our ride.
the moules au curry gets the thumbs up
the Bromptons holding up well
obligatory selfie with alignments in the background
Carnac village - another pretty place
