Saint-Malo, land of Corsairs.

Saint-Malo, its ramparts, its lively port, its typical alleyways…
This stronghold of Brittany, a stone vessel facing the sea, founded in the 12th century, is today one of the most popular tourist destinations in Brittany.

A must for anyone who walks the cobblestones of the city of Saint-Malo: a walk along the ramparts. It takes about an hour to go around the whole way, but there are stairs
allow visitors to descend regularly. Grand Bé, Bastion de Hollande, Môle des Noires, Place Chateaubriand… the names of the places and squares of Saint-Malo take visitors on a journey into the past of the corsair city.

At 5 rue d'Asfeld, the Demeure Corsaire allows you to go back a little further in the history of Saint-Malo. This private mansion, listed as a historical monument, is the perfect example of the shipowners' hotels that dotted the Saint-Malo intra-muros of yesteryear. A little further on, the brand new maritime history museum tells the story of the era of the great fishing in Newfoundland.

Even today, Saint-Malo remains a hotbed of activity
nautical. Every four years, the city welcomes the greatest sailors
international for the Route du Rhum, a solo race linking France to Guadeloupe. The special atmosphere of the city surrounded by ramparts also seduces
simple walkers. You can enjoy all kinds of gourmet breaks: between Kouign Amann (typical Breton butter and sugar cake), salted butter caramels or artisanal ice cream, you are spoiled for choice.
