About Saint-Malo

Saint-Malo is a historic walled port city in Brittany on the English Channel. Once a notorious stronghold for corsairs (French privateers/pirates), the historic old town (Intra-Muros) is completely enclosed by tall granite ramparts. During low tide, sandy beaches emerge, allowing visitors to walk to historic islets and forts.

💡Why Visit?

Walk atop the massive granite ramparts surrounding the old town and explore the tidal islands of Grand Bé and Petit Bé at low tide.
