Vincin, Protected natural area and river in Vannes, France

The Vincin River flows for 16.1 kilometers through the Morbihan department before reaching the Gulf of Morbihan at its mouth near Conleau Island.

The river, formerly spelled Vinsein, marks the boundary between Vannes and Arradon municipalities while supporting agricultural activities until the late 20th century.

The Conservatoire du Littoral manages 43 hectares of protected riverside land, integrating natural preservation with controlled public access since 1995.

The area features walking paths along the Pargo and Goasleres tributaries, allowing visitors to observe numerous bird species including herons and wagtails.

The landscape changes with tidal movements, revealing salt-water vegetation at high tide and exposed mudflats during low tide periods.
