July 2026: festivities and events to discover from the campsite

Events and tourism in Morbihan

      • July in Morbihan is a season like no other. Regattas take over the harbour at La Trinité-sur-Mer, the Saint-Cornely church in Carnac lights up every evening with monumental projections, and the upper town of Auray becomes a medieval market. All of this just a few kilometres from your pitch or your mobile home.

        Here is our selection of outings to help you plan your days and discover the places along the Morbihan coast at the same time.
