To the rhythm of the tides, the sea comes far inland, immersing Armor in Argoat, leaving landscapes behind it that are rich in colours, fragrances, flavours, sounds and sensations. It is even said that the sea has signed a pact of love with the land: Blue and green come together building history, culture, the country and heritage of Côtes d'Armor. Colourful, Côtes d'Armor will awaken your senses!
Monday, I saw light and colours.
Here, "it's all magic". Discover the incredible seasons: The attractive greens of spring will surprise you, the playful sunlight will dazzle you, the golden scenes of autumn will move you and the cloak of frost in winter will soothe you.
Tuesday, I smelt the fragrance of plants and flowers.
First prize winner of the Départements (counties) in bloom in 1997, Côtes d'Armor offers thousands of seasonal fragrances which will totally enchant you. Any opportunity of exploring the “gardening sideî of Côtes d'Armor (parks in bloom, flower festivals, etc.) is an enjoyable one.
Wednesday, I tasted the flavours of the lands and sea.
With the sea flavour of freshly fished scallops, spider crabs that have just left their tanks, silver scaled sea bass, and the smoky flavour of traditional pork meats, not to mention golden buckwheat galettes (savoury pancakes), crêpes (sweet pancakes) that melt in the mouth, and Coco de Paimpol haricot beans, our heart is a flutter and our taste buds tantalized.
Thursday, I listened to music, stories and the wind
I heard that the goblins, elves and other fairy folk populate the lakes, rivers and footpaths. Listen hard and perhaps you will also hear this life swarming at your feet. You are not sure? Come closer. Can you hear them? Those are sprites. Unless it's a melody; some traditional or contemporary music inviting you to dance.
Through the package holidays suiting my tastes: walking, cycling, horse riding, sailing, golf, fishing, etc.
Through a combination of day theme outings, creating “all inclusiveî holidays which groups can make up themselves with the help of the Côtes d'Armor Tourist Board!
The abbeys, churches, chapels, chateaux, sports, museums, craftsmen, as well as the natural surroundings, walks, the welcome and the people of Côtes d'Armor...
