Brittany has a ton to offer tourists and is just a few hours away from Paris. But, when you come here, there are some absolute facts you must be aware of. Follow this guide and you’ll have the time of your life in Brittany.

Oysters

Since it’s located on the ocean, there is some truly fabulous seafood available all year round, including mussels, scallops, and oysters. The only thing is with the oysters, you can only eat them if there is an ‘r’ in the month. It may sound strange, but all the locals will tell you that if you’re there during a month without an ‘r’ in it, stay away from the oysters.
