Morbihan on the south coast of Brittany ows its name to its
inland sea (mor bihan in breton means little sea) where according to the
legend, there are as many islands as there are days in a year. No other name
could better match this region where the alliance of coastline and hinterland
and an exceptionally mild climate make it very pleasant to live in.
