Brest Bretagne Airport

Brest Bretagne Airport (BES), opened in the 1930s, is the main gateway to western Brittany and sits about 10–15 minutes’ drive north of Brest city centre in Guipavas; the compact airport has one passenger terminal and handles regional, domestic and seasonal international services. As a modest-sized but important regional airport, it connects travelers to Paris and other French cities via Air France/HOP! and hosts seasonal low-cost routes, making it a practical option for visitors heading to the Crozon peninsula and Finistère coast. The airport is well served by Brest’s Bibus buses, taxis and road links, is generally considered affordable for flights and parking, and functions as a base for regional carriers while attracting occasional budget airlines.
