The bay of Mont-Saint-michel at Cancale or on the other side at Granville. Visitors stroll along the boulevard searching for the local delicacy: the oyster. Mussels and oysters are part of the bays culture or better, the bay gained a certain fame through them. At low tide the farmers harvest shellfish which are large enough and take them to the market or auction. In the tv-series Heritage Sites of the World we visit 26 locations. Each location featured is considered to be unique of universal value for all mankind. Officially designated by UNESCO as World Heritage Site, each one is to be safeguarded for the future as a testimony to its enduring past.
