Market

La Baule's central market is where I love to go to start my day. Just 5 mins from the Avenue General de Gaulle and the promenade, it is the ideal place to buy oysters from Brittany, famous Plougastel strawberries or a tasty cake from La Baule. Some stalls stand out, like the seller of honey with the glazed hive, or one of the fruit and vegetable stalls where you can buy pealed green beans. The building is in itself interesting. It was built in 1912, and will be renovated in 2012 to mark the centenary of its foundation, and it will be given a modern look by laying down solar panels. It is a very lively place, where there are merchants and customers every day from 8-2pm.
