Roscoff is a commune in the Finistère department in Bretagne in northwestern France. Since the early 1970s, Roscoff has been developed as a ferry port for the transport of Breton agricultural produce, and for car-based tourism. Brittany Ferries' links with the United Kingdom and Ireland provide a boost to the local economy. In the late 1990s people from the South West of England began to travel to Roscoff from Plymouth in order to stay for one or two days and import French wines at much cheaper prices than in England.
