Riantec is a small French village or commune in Morbihan, Brittany bordered by the shores of the little sea of Gâvres on the south. It may not be as flamboyant as other renowned French cities, but it attracts its own crowd as a unique tourist destination. The Gâvres lagoon, which drains during low tide and opens to the Blavet and Lorient Harbor, provides opportunities for swimming, kayaking, kitesurfing, and windsurfing. After strolling on its fishing shores, explore its wooded inland territory featuring hamlet-style houses, lush landscapes, and various ancient edifices reminiscent of its rich history of lordships. Eglise Sainte-Radegonde, an 11th-century neo-Gothic parish church, dominates the cityscape along with other older chapels. The 17th-century Stervins tide mill and the elegant 18th-century Kerdurand Castle continue to amaze tourists.
