Brive-La-Gaillarde Travel Guide
France
Brive-la-Gaillarde is a French town of 53,466 people in the country’s south-west. It is inland, so this is a useful base for exploring the surrounding region rather than a beach destination.
Most visitors arriving by air use Brive-Souillac Airport (BVE), the airport serving the city. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so plan coastal trips separately rather than expecting a nearby seaside stop.
