EDITORS COMMENTS
Beg-Meil: Arrival of the Boats from Concarneau, Western Brittany (circa 1910) This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene at Beg-Meil harbor in Finistere, Western Brittany, as boats filled with holidaymakers return from the nearby town of Concarneau. The quay is alive with activity as luggage is unloaded and piled high, awaiting embarkation for the onward journey to the resort. Amidst the chaos, an ice cream vendor stands ready, his cart laden with refreshing treats for the weary travelers. The children, blissfully unaware of the comings and goings, play in the rock pools at the water's edge, their laughter adding to the joyous atmosphere. The boats, reminiscent of the traditional sailing vessels of the region, carry the distinctive colors and sails of the Glenan archipelago, a popular destination for tourists seeking a taste of the beautiful Brittany coastline. The boats, with their elegant curves and graceful lines, are a testament to the rich maritime heritage of this region. Beg-Meil, with its picturesque harbor and sandy beaches, was a popular resort destination in the early 20th century, attracting visitors from far and wide. The arrival of the boats from Concarneau marked the beginning of a new day of relaxation and adventure for the holidaymakers, as they explored the delights of this beautiful corner of Western Brittany.
