Erquy and fishing, a certain art of living

Erquy remains a very active fishing port with over sixty fishing boats. There are also more than 250 fishermen!

The fishing port was one of Brittany's top 3 ports in 2018.

The scallop is the flagship product of the Erquy fishery. This famous mollusc is fished from October onwards.

Every year, the scallop festival is organised in one of the three main fishing ports in the Côtes-d'Armor department.

In addition to Erquy, Loguivy and Saint Quay are two other active scallop fishing ports.

⏰ Finally, you should know that the Halle à marée (fish market) in Erquy can be visited all year round (except Saturdays and Sundays), by appointment only.
