If you are active (or would like to be!) then you are spoilt for choice. Sports and activities are easy in Finistere, as there is lots of space, few people, and miles and miles of varied coastline, and beautiful beaches.
Firstly, cycling. This is a great way to get around - local shops are within easy reach, and 2 high quality adult bicycles are provided at every house except Ty Bois. Andrew is a keen cyclist and often horrified by the condition of hire bikes, so we have a good selection of hybrids and mountain bikes.
Kayaking is also great fun, and there are 3 sea kayaks, a Frenzy at Ty Traez/Bili, and a Scrambler and a Malibu XL at Ty Bois. (A 1 person and a 2 person). Paddles and lifejackets are provided.
Surfing - if you have never tried before, don't worry! You can easily find a wave to match your ability, and there are lots of surf schools. The surf is excellent and consistent, with a huge choice of beaches. Lostmarc'h is one of the best surf beaches in Brittany.
The famous coastal footpath the GR34 runs the full length of the Finistere coastline. The cliff paths are well marked and have rich and varied scenery and stunning views. Choose from short strolls out to watch the sun set over the sea, of full day hikes!
For horse riding, there are several different stables in the area, which may be a short drive away.
For tennis players, Ty Bois has it's own court, although the condition is only good enough for an eccentric knock around. There are courts right next to Ty Traez/Bili, and various others close to the other houses. Ty Traez has it's own full size table tennis table.
Fishing trips can be arranged from Audierne, Douarnanez or Le Guilvinec.
The water is often very clear in the summer, and diving is popular. Lobster and spider crabs are common catches.
There are several excellent indoor pools in the area - 2 in Quimper, a new one close to Primlein, and 1 in Morgat.
There is a tree clmbing adventure park in Quimper, a bowling alley and several cinemas.
Finistere was made for wind and kitesurfing - there is almost always a breeze, and there is plenty of space. Lessons are available.
Sand yachting is another popular sport here - there is a school on Pentrez beach.
