Tourist information -
Saint Malo
Saint Malo, with its vast beach stretching out
like a golden ribbon, its casino and its elaborate villas, is the
ideal seaside resort for romantic weekends and family holidays.
Stand on the sea wall and marvel at the different shades of colour
and contrasts created between the sea and sky, or accept our invitation
to admire the spectacular spring tides, which reveal a landscape
of small islands and reefs at low tide. Make the most of this opportunity
to walk out to the National Fort, designed by the military architect
Vauban, and to the Petit-Bé and Grand Bé islands where
you may salute the greatest of all romantic authors, Chateaubriand,
whose tomb seems to jut out over the ocean.
Departing from Saint-Malo, you can enjoy the British touch just
a few cable lengths away on the islands of Jersey, Guernsey and
Sark; take a boat trip along the Rance estuary or around the Bay
of Saint Malo; or if you prefer driving, follow the scenic route
along the Rance Valley.
