The Islander Caregiver Fare
To facilitate the travel of family or designated caregivers, BreizhGo Océane now offers the Caregiver Card. This card, issued by BreizhGo Océane, allows holders to travel at a reduced price all year round to Belle-Île-en-Mer, Groix, Houat, and Hoëdic.
The Caregiver Card
The beneficiaries of the Caregiver Card are persons recognized as guardians, family referents, or recipients of the daily caregiver allowance (AJPA). They can apply for a nominative card valid on the island of residence of the person they care for.
Applicants must submit their request by email using the form available at the bottom of this page.

Applicants for the Caregiver Fare requesting a nominative card must provide the following documents at the time of the request:
- The judge’s decision (for guardians)
- Certificate from the Department or Ehpad (for family referents)
- Proof from CAF or MSA confirming receipt of the daily caregiver allowance (AJPA) (for caregivers)
- A document proving the relationship between the applicant and the person being cared for (e.g., family record book)
- Proof of primary residence on the island for the person cared for
- Proof of address of the Caregiver (the address where the card will be sent once validated)
Processing of requests
The file must be sent via the form with all necessary information and the supporting documents listed above. The Customer Relations service for regular travelers will process the files and create the cards within 15 days.
Once validated, the nominative card will be created and sent by mail as soon as possible. An update of the supporting documents will be done every year.
