A living community of nature and tradition
Like many Breton towns, Moëlan-sur-mer is no exception, offering local markets of all kinds: food products, of course, but also souvenirs, clothing and fish and shellfish.
This commune in southern Finistère, located halfway between Lorient and Quimper, offers a wide range of activities for locals and holidaymakers alike: hiking, beaches, exhibitions, sporting activities and more.
What’s more, its ideal location allows you to discover the Breton coast and its riches, with its coastal paths, harbors, beaches and creeks as far as the eye can see.
Let’s discover this region and its local treasures…
Markets in Moëlan-sur-Mer
Moëlan’s main market
On Tuesday mornings, locals and holidaymakers alike gather to browse the hundreds of stalls at Moëlan-sur-mer’s main market from 8am to 1pm.
You’ll have no trouble finding it, as it’s located in the village, near the church square.
The easiest way to get there is to park in the Intermarché parking lot, and then simply walk about 5 minutes.
Arriving at the weekly market, you’ll find everything you need: meat, fish, shellfish, fresh fruit and vegetables, local specialities, clothes, souvenirs and other local produce. If you’re looking for a good Kouign Amann or local apple juice, this market is the place to be.
Before or after the market, you’ll have the chance to take a stroll along the GR34 coastline, starting from the port of Merrien or Kerfany beach, the choice is yours.
The food market
If you simply want to find markets where you can buy food for yourself or your guests, we recommend the Kergroës market every Saturday morning.
This market is located not far from the Bélon river in Moëlan-sur-mer.
Just 15 minutes from Flower camping Le Kergariou, you can buy directly from local producers between 8:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m.
All local produce is sourced from local market gardeners, fishmongers and farmers who offer seasonal produce.
Buying at the Bélon fish market
For quality products and lovers of fish and shellfish, the quayside of the Bélon fish market is the place to be.
On the left bank, fishermen set up shop to sell the fresh produce they have caught directly from Monday to Friday.
For timetables, we advise you to visit the site and consult the notice board, which details the arrival times of the boats and their specialities.
Armed with your basket, you’ll leave with fresh, quality, local produce while enjoying the seaside.

Quimperlé clearly has a wide variety of markets: food markets, night markets, summer markets, farmers’ markets, fairs and, of course, Christmas markets.
