Introducing Concarneau
The sheltered harbour of Concarneau (Konk-Kerne in Breton), 24km southeast of Quimper, is known far and wide for its trawler port, which brings in close to 200,000 tonnes of thon (tuna) from the Indian Ocean and off the African coast (the adjacent Atlantic’s too cold!). Jutting out into the port, the old town, Ville Close, is circled by medieval walls.
