The city of Brest is located on the western tip of Brittany and is an important port and naval base. Brest is by far the largest city in the Finistère department but the town of Quimper is the préfecture (capital) of the Finistère department.

The city itself features a good selection of townhouses which make for great property investments and in the surrounding area you can find a good selection of cottages, farmhouses, villas and holiday homes.

Brest Guide

Brest is the biggest town in the Finistère departement. Located on the western tip of Brittany, the city is an important port and naval base. Set in a magnificent natural harbour, known as the Rade de Brest, the city of Brest is sheltered from ocean storms.

The international airport in Brest offers direct flights to several destinations in England but if you prefer the ferry, Brest is only 1 hour drive from the port of Roscoff (coach lines are available in between the two towns). View our Brest holiday rentals.

Brest is a modern town; most of its architecture is post WWII as it has been almost completely destroyed. Yet there are lots of places to visit (the aquarium Oceanopolis, the marina, the naval museum) and plenty of activities for everyone: sailing schools, flying school, windsurfing and scuba diving.

Property prices in Brest are quite reasonable and get cheaper further from the coast. Although wherever you are in Finistère you are never far from the sea. There are still property bargains to be found in and around Brest and even a number of properties with renovation opportunities.

As a city, it offers a large choice of restaurants, bars, shops and entertainments. Le Bistro de Gaëtan, in the St-Martin district is a much loved, reasonably priced restaurant serving local dishes such as Breton stew.
