Origin/meaning
The arms were designed and adopted in 1985. The complete arms show the motto 'Douar aour, mor en e dro', or Golden land on the border of the sea (in Breton).
The main shield shows the golden lands (rich agriculture) and two blue pales symbolising the l'Aber Benoît and the l'Aber Wrac'h. The chief shows an ancient Breton ship, used for the sailing to England. The Celtic cross is the cross found at St. Téda, dating from the 5th century. The two shells represent the modern importance of aquaculture for the village.
