Camaret-sur-Mer, Coastal commune in Finistère, France
Located at the tip of the Crozon peninsula, Camaret-sur-Mer extends over 11 square kilometers along the northwestern coast of France, facing the Atlantic Ocean.
The Tour Vauban, constructed between 1669 and 1694 to protect the harbor, received UNESCO World Heritage recognition in 2008 as part of the Fortifications of Vauban.
The Camarétois maintain maritime traditions through their marina activities, fishing heritage, and strong connections with their twin city of St Ives in Cornwall.
The commune provides winter buoy maintenance services and seasonal boat mooring facilities for sailors accessing the Atlantic waters throughout the year.
Ancient stone alignments at Lagatjar reveal human presence dating back 8,000 years, marking this location as an early settlement area in Brittany.
