To get to the island of Ouessant by boat:
- All year round: daily crossings from Le Conquet or from Brest via Le Conquet.
In Le Conquet (the shortest crossing), parking is strictly regulated (2 hours maximum in the centre and the port). It is best to park in the islands car park (P10) near the police station (which is reassuring...) to the north-east of Le Conquet (the rate for summer 2015 was €23 for 2 days). A free shuttle bus can take you to the port (and bring you back). Otherwise, it takes about 20 minutes to walk to the pier.
- In season: crossings from other ports, including Lannildut, Camaret, etc.
Two companies serve the island, notably Pen Ar Bed: check the timetables.
It is advisable to book in advance.
You arrive in the morning on the first boat and start the walk at the port of Le Stiff, located in the east of the island.
You will set off along the south coast to reach the village of Lampaul.
The second day will be spent walking from Lampaul to Port du Stiff along the north coast. You will return by boat at the end of the day.
Accommodation options in Lampaul: two hotels, guest houses. Book in advance.
In Lampaul, supplies are available at the bakery and grocery store.
