About
About Sein
Sein has one dependable link and two that barely exist. Penn-ar-Bed runs seven departures to Audierne, every day, every one timed at exactly sixty minutes on the Enez Sun 3. That is the island's lifeline and it holds to 31 December.
The five-Sunday connections
The other two routes are seasonal in the narrowest sense. Sein–Brest (90 minutes) and Sein–Camaret (60 minutes) sail on Sundays only, between 9 August and 6 September — five dates in the year, worked by Petrel, leaving the island at 16.30 or 17.00. Outside that month the north coast is not reachable from here without going through Audierne.
Planning around one ship
With a single vessel on the main route, the day is shaped by its rotation: first departure for the mainland at 10.15, last at 18.20. Miss the last one and there is no alternative operator to fall back on — nineteen departures across six routes, all of them Penn-ar-Bed.
