Attracting throngs of boaters, the port of Paimpol remains forever linked to the sometimes tragic epic of Iceland's 19th century cod fishing industry. Pierre Loti's novel "Pêcheur d'Islande" contributed to Paimpol's popularity, as did Théodore Botrel's song "La Paimpolaise". Today, this coastal town, which is always very busy in season, attracts tourists with walks along the Côte du Goëlo, boat trips on the Trieux, water sports and regional dishes.

Colorful houses frame this small port, where a fleet of old fishing boats still holds out among more and more yachts and pleasure boats.

Nice place. Small core, many restaurants and such. Nice lively stopover
