Sibiril

Sibiril covers approximately 111.47 square kilometers in northwestern France with a population of around 1,154 residents as of 2022, featuring varied terrain from sea level to 66 meters elevation.

The commune developed as part of the historical Brittany region with its maritime port Moguériec serving as a major sardine fishing center in the early 20th century before becoming the leading lobster port in North Finistère until the 1960s.

Local identity reflects deep Breton heritage through traditional festivals, agricultural celebrations, and maritime folklore, with residents known as Sibirilois maintaining customs rooted in both fishing traditions and farming practices that connect them to land and sea.

Visitors can access the town hall at 19 Place de la Mairie for administrative services, explore marked coastal trails along the Guillec valley, and contact local authorities at 02 98 29 91 57 or commune.de.sibiril@wanadoo.fr for information.

The commune successfully balances traditional maritime activities with modern sustainable fishing practices, currently focusing on red mullet fishing and crustacean harvesting including spider crabs and edible crabs while maintaining its agricultural market gardening operations.
