About this event


⚠️ Event concluded. Please check our updated agenda to discover new activities in this region.

La Fête de la Morgate celebrates one of L’Île-d’Yeu’s most recognizable seafood traditions in the intimate setting of Port de la Meule. Morgate, the local name for cuttlefish, carries the taste of island cooking and the memory of fishing communities. The event brings that food culture into a festive public gathering, where harbor atmosphere, local associations and shared meals matter as much as the dish itself. For visitors, it is an accessible way to encounter island identity through flavor, place and conviviality. The small port setting gives the celebration its character, linking gastronomy directly to the maritime life that produced it.
