One of the factors that may appeal to Brittany property investors is the strong relationship the region has with the sea, which surrounds the peninsula on three sides and gives rise to a number of maritime and seafood-related events.

The latter takes centre stage in April when the annual Cotes D’Armor Scallop festival takes place.

Fans of shellfish may be drawn to the two-day event, which occurs in a different coastal location in the area each year and in 2009 will be held in Saint-Quay-Portrieux

As well as enjoying the scallops themselves, visitors can enjoy the other seafood on offer at the festival, as well as enjoying music, boat trips and the fine local scenery.

Other events in the area that Brittany property investors may enjoy include the Perros Guirec comic strip festival, featuring the works of artists in this genre in an area well known for its pink granite coastline.
