Things to Do  

Want to go fishing

Want to go fishing, Doëlan

 ranger49 Says:  If you enjoy fishing ,or are a novice but fancy a boat ride and fishing trip, you can take one from Rive Droite in the Harbour. Near the Port Office look out for the distinctive bright yellow board with details of Promenades en Mer. I overheard a young couple - honeymooners... 

The daily fish Market

The daily fish Market, Doëlan

 ranger49 Says:  A small fish market sells the catch of the day on almost every day of the week. It's a laid back affair but if you are in the area and self-catering worth visiting. It has always been mid- to late afternoon when we have been there - but the time may shift with the... 

Keep eyes peeled & binoculars handy!

Keep eyes peeled & binoculars handy!, Doëlan

 ranger49 Says:  All kinds of unusual vessels may be seen sailing the waters around this coast so it pays to be on the look-out. When we noticed a small group of people peering out to sea near the harbour wall we joined them and saw the object of their attention even with the naked eye.... 

Parking and driving to the other Bank

Parking and driving to the other Bank, Doëlan

 ranger49 Says:  At busy times of the year I imagine the traffic through the village can be very busy.. There is a modest sized car park on Rive Droite - you can just see it on the left i n the first picture.The large building in front is the back of the Cooperative Maritime - a rather nice...

Bar le Rive Gauche: A cafe bar with a View, Doëlan

 ranger49 Says:  Another great harbourside place to stop - whether for coffee, a glass of local cider or beer. Good fresh fish dishes are served according to the season and the catch.The View from this place is one of the most idyllic so I was glad to hear that proposals made by the owner to... 

Bar Restaurant Le Suroit: Fish as fresh as can be!

Bar Restaurant Le Suroit: Fish as fresh as can be!, Doëlan

 ranger49 Says:  In a perfect location on the harbourside, it is particularly pleasant to sit outside on a nice day soaking up the atmosphere and enjoyinf the view over to the Right Bank and the red and white light house. We love the moules here and as we have only been there outside the... 

Shopping  

Fresh Fish for Sale

Fresh Fish for Sale, Doëlan

 ranger49 Says:  This daily fish market in the port is one of the nicest, laid back little markets. Opening hours are posted as 3- 5 pm ( according to season and weather) and we have found some lee-way at both ends! In the many times we have gone down to the port we have never actually made... 

Not too many to choose from: Shopaholics - Doelan is not for you!

Not too many to choose from: Shopaholics - Doelan is not for you!, Doëlan

 ranger49 Says:  Apart fom the Cooperative Maritime near the car park on the Rive Droite, the daily fish market, and a gallery or two in the main street, this is not a shopaholics paradise!But for self caterers - do not fear . Clohars Carnoet, Moelan sur Mer, Guidel and Quimperlé can supply...
