Discover the emblematic places of Brittany as well as Mont Saint Michel:

Dinan : A must-see Breton medieval town, Dinan overlooks the calm waters of the Rance. Along its cobbled streets or along the river, the city and its surroundings can be visited at a leisurely pace to enjoy extraordinary nature and heritage.

Dinard : A renowned seaside resort, especially popular among the British and Americans, for its Belle Époque villas and the British Film Festival held there every year since the 1990s. With its many classified villas dating back to the 1900s and 1910s, its casino and cultural events, it is considered one of the most prestigious seaside resorts in France.

Rance Tidal Power Station : The Rance Tidal Power Station is a French power plant that derives its energy from the tidal force. It is located in the estuary of the Rance, between the municipalities of La Richardais and Saint-Malo, in Ille-et-Vilaine, in north-eastern Brittany. With an installed capacity of 240 MW, it remained the world's largest tidal power station for 45 years, from its commissioning in 1966 until August 4, 2011, when it was surpassed by the Sihwa Tidal Power Plant in South Korea, which is slightly more powerful (254 MW installed).

Saint Malo : Corsair city, capital of the sea, jewel of the Emerald Coast... whatever qualifiers are attributed to it, Saint-Malo has always been, throughout its history, the meeting place of all adventures, of all dreams...
More than a spectacle, tides rhythm the daily life of Malouins. Here, the sea offers you a different landscape at every moment, swept twice a day by the ebb and flow of the tide.
During full moon or new moon, the attraction is at its peak. The tidal coefficients usually exceed 100. Fishermen and oyster farmers are busy between flood and ebb, always keeping in mind the time of the tide.
Every six months, near each equinox (March-April and September-October), tides are even stronger. These are the famous equinox tides eagerly awaited by shore fishermen, as the sea withdraws particularly far. But they are also greatly feared by residents of the seaside because the risk of flooding at high tide is frequent.

Pointe du Grouin : Pointe du Grouin in Cancale is the most advanced rocky promontory in the department, offering a sumptuous panorama. To the east, the eye loses itself in the bay of Mont Saint Michel and on the coasts of the English Channel, while to the west it ventures into a series of shores and points interspersed with blond sandy beaches.
It is also from here that the mythical sea race, the Route du Rhum, sets off every 4 years towards Pointe-à-Pitre.

Cancale (the pearl of the Emerald Coast) : This pretty port is enjoyed as much by the eyes as by the palate. Elected a remarkable taste site, Cancale has long been renowned for its oysters and shellfish. An undeniable asset, these iodized delights are appreciated while admiring the wonder that is Mont Saint-Michel, set in the middle of the bay.
