This small town of 5 000 inhabitants is visited every year by travellers from all over the world who come to taste its wild oysters, enjoy its turquoise blue waters and its magnificent beaches. Cancale is a picturesque fishing port in Brittany, famous for one thing – its oysters.
It’s not for nothing that this town in north-west France has been called ‘the oyster capital’. It is a place where you can enjoy fresh oysters in restaurants, but also buy them directly from the producers at the Marché aux huitres (oyster market).
Cancale is only a 50 minutes’ drive from le Mont Saint-Michel
