Landéda (Breton: Landeda) is a commune in the Finistère department of Brittany in north-western France.
The coastal commune of Landéda forms a peninsula between two rias, the Aber Wrac'h to the north and the Aber-Benoît to the south.
Inhabitants of Landéda are called in French Landédaens.
Landeda is the base for the high-speed rescue motorboat located at the port of Aber Wrac'h. The rescue service is operated by volunteers. The rescue motorboat is named the President Joseph Oulhen, which is the name of a former manager of the service who died in service in 1986.
The port of the Aber Wrac'h is within the territory of the commune. It includes a marina managed by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Brest.
Other notable sights include an abbey, a manor, many stone crosses and islands with ancient ruins.
