Brittany : SUCE SUR ERDRE

Discovering inland Brittany is a poem in itself. Between land and sea, its vast network of rivers and canals offers a wide range of possible itineraries.
Our departure point from Sucé sur Erdre is perfect either for heading for Nantes, a journey strewn with incomparable castles, or, after only a few kilometers, for negotiating your first lock and joining the Nantes-Brest canal. Pass through Blain and Redon, founded in 832 and rich in history. At Redon the river Vilaine can take you on an enchanting cruise to the Arzal dam (passage forbidden) or perhaps towards Rennes and why not as far as Dinan ? Continuing on the Nantes-Brest canal, a short excursion on the river Aff to La Gacilly is a must.
With its colourful landscapes and its traditions, Brittany is a much-loved destination, perfect for spring, summer or autumn cruises.

The attractions :
waterways devoted entirely to pleasure cruising
its traditions
its seafood, delicious crêpes and traditional cider.
