Week-end around Saint-Malo

Ready to raise anchor and cast off for adventure? Welcome to Saint-Malo, the old city of privateers!

Discover the historical center, its fortifications and ramparts, a lovely place to go for a walk!
Stroll into the bustling streets with a view over the ship-owners’ houses and relax on the numerous beaches.

Be ready to explore the legendary Emerald coast! You ride from Dinard to reach Saint-Lunaire and Saint-Briac-sur-Mer with their large sandy beaches and discover a sea with a magnifient colour you will not forget. This is ideal for a break!

You will ride through the green countryside on small country roads to the Emerald Coast from where you will have a breathtaking view of the port of Cancale. If you are lucky, you may even see the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel.

Go down to the port of Cancale and taste its famous oysters. You then return to Saint-Malo by following the coast and stopping in the small creeks between the Pointe du Grouin and the corsair city.

Discover the Malouinières from Saint-Malo. Wind your way through fields of cabbage, along quiet lanes and enjoy the homes of the shipowners of Saint-Malo. Often hidden behind the carved woodwork of formal gardens, these grand houses are typical of the Corsair city. Along the way, in Saint-Malo’s Rothéneuf district, you can visit the Musée Jacques Cartier. This 16th-century manor house tells the story of the city’s native explorer. Return to the city, alternating between cycle paths and secondary roads, and return to the ramparts along the seafront.
