The Kerhervy Boat Cemetery

This place is imprinted with a history strongly connected to the island of Groix; from 1920, the owners of tuna fishing boats from Groix placed their boats here over winter. Sheltered for a season on the mudflats, the boats returned to fishing in the spring. During the Second World War, these fishermen were called up to the front and hid their boats at the end of the mouth of the Blavet, so as not to be requisitioned by the Germans. Unfortunately, many of these soldiers never came back from the front and their boats remained, damaged by bombs and gently sinking into the mud. Later, other old sailboats and wooden trawlers were added to the site, which is now a boat cemetery. The last witnesses of traditional fishing and know-how, their ghostly silhouettes provide this historical place with a mysterious atmosphere.
