Douarnenez, Brittany

With its twin harbours, Port Rhu and Port du Rosmeur, Douarnenez is rich in maritime history. A standout attraction is the Port-Musée (maritime museum). The food is also excellent, particularly the local sardines, and there are some great spots for lively evenings listening to traditional Breton tunes.
