The school is accommodated at the French National Sailing School (Ecole Nationale de Voile), located on the site of Beg Rohu, in the village Saint Pierre Quiberon, on the peninsula of Quiberon in southern Brittany. The nearest cities are Quiberon, Auray and Vannes, all located in the district ("département" in French) of Morbihan.
From Paris, TGV express trains take 3.5h to reach Auray. Then get on the local train or the bus to Quiberon, which makes a stop at Saint Pierre Quiberon close to Beg Rohu. See our detailed instructions for the arrival and the departure.
