Steep coasts, turquoise sea, long fine sandy beaches, the fortified city of Saint-Malo, the classified architectural heritage villas of Dinard... the Emerald Coast offers many charming seaside cities and natural marvels to discover.
Morning - Stopover in Dinan, free walk on the way to the Emerald Coast
Dinan is without doubt one of the most charming and best preserved small Medieval towns in Brittany. With its 1.8 mile (3km)-long ramparts, half-timbered houses, attractive port and cobbled streets filled with art galleries and craft shops, it’s worth a nice walk.

Afternoon - Historical and gourmet walk in Saint Malo
Built up on a peninsula during the 12th century, Saint Malo is especially famous for its magnificent fortifications.
Our professional guide will walk you through the narrow alleys while introducing the story of the shipowners who made the fortune of the city. Indeed, they were sending the India Company ships to Asia to find and bring back coffee, tea, and spices that were then sold throughout France.
You will also discover a few local specialties thanks to their ambassadors: the most famous spices collection, butter collection, gourmet sarrasin delicacies.
Suggestion / Diner: Our selected gastronomic restaurant promoting local, seasonal and "home made" cuisine. Beautiful view over Saint-Malo and the seaside.
