Locmaria

Locmaria (French pronunciation: [lɔkmaʁja]; Breton: Lokmaria-ar-Gerveur) is a commune in the Morbihan department in Brittany in north-western France. Locmaria is one of the four communes of Belle Île.

From the Breton loc which means hermitage (cf.: Locminé) and 'maria' which derive from Mary.

Inhabitants of Locmaria are called in French Locmariaïstes.

The village occupies the eastern part of the island Belle-Île-en-Mer. Rocky cliffs, sometimes 50 meters high, surround the territory. On the north coast, stretches the beach Les Grands Sables.
