1. Favouring soft mobility
When we go on holiday, we often tend to want to get around by car, for the sake of simplicity... However, there are many other environmentally-friendly solutions that are just as effective!
Why not get on your bike and cycle from town to town? Cycle tourism is a very popular way of discovering new horizons, travelling using nothing but your bike. Many tourist destinations offer a wide range of routes specially reserved for bikes!

2. Buying local
As well as offering a truly unique experience, eating locally helps the economy of our producers... The Morbihan Gulf has a wealth of producers keen to share their knowledge and local produce with you! So, during your stay, don't hesitate to go and meet the local oyster farmers, market gardeners and cider makers!

3. Keep up the good work
On holiday, most people tend to forget their good habits. But it's just as important to keep up the good habits! So keep sorting your rubbish, and take a rubbish bag with you when you go for a walk. As well as sorting your rubbish, remember to use a reusable water bottle and an airtight box for your meal to limit the consumption of disposable plastic.

At the end of a holiday, we often want to bring back a souvenir for our loved ones (or ourselves), and this can be a responsible thing to do too! All you have to do is choose a (truly) local shop or artisan. You could, for example, take home a bottle of cider, some salted butter caramel or tinned fish! In and around Vannes, there are plenty of small local shops selling these kinds of products, so you'll be spoilt for choice.
