The Scorff estuary

With its source in the Côtes-d’Armor department, the river Scorff is 75 km long. Its estuary stretches over 12 km, from Bas Pont-Scorff to Lorient. The landscape is typical of the meeting between river and sea, freshwater and salt water. The wooded banks are interspersed with marshes and reed beds, flooded at high tides.This bay offers a shelter and a wonderful food store for river and seabirds, such as cormorants and gulls. The little egret can be seen here, fishing for fish, worms and crab. This small white heron nests in the trees.
