www.sud-goelo.info

With the passing of years and since 1997 the Codfish Festival of Binic offers to his visitors a spring event to honour the sailors who went fishing to Iceland in the past and so for their families.

 

A hard labour and a dangerous life for the men and the children embarked on the boats sailing to TERRE-NEUVE and a long and hard awaiting for the families remained in Binic, living sometimes under difficult economic conditions.

 

The 2007 edition for this event will mark the ten years birthday fo the festival and proposes to offer increased animated spaces to show how much the local past is rich of a maritime, musical and artistic culture which remains nowadays.

 

You will find while visiting, the traditional sailing ships from the Northern coast of Brittany, some Cornish and foreign very nice units, you will take part in the concerts, will visit the shows, you will meet associations and of the craftsmen who contribute to affirm this tradition which finds its roots in the maritime past of Binic and its area

 

This festival which receives more than 50 000 visitors each year and after his success of 2006 will offer even more for its tenth birthday......
