The 10 Best Free Things to do in Saint-Malo, Brittany
Saint-Malo, originally built as a walled citadel guarding the mouth of the Rance river, was for centuries home to feared pirates. They’ve all gone to Davy Jones’ Locker, though, and now it’s Brittany’s most-visited city. Walk the bustling streets of the reconstructed old city and the vast beaches, making sure to stop at the Grande Porte, Porte St-Vincent, the town’s castle with its Musée de la Ville and the Grand Aquarium.

You can walk the whole perimeter of the "Intra-muros" Saint Malo town, without coming down off the ramparts. It's not to be missed if you're visiting this beautiful town.

We spent a late summer weekend and the beach is absolutely beautiful. Clean and no litter. At low tide there were a few swimmers and a very wide expanse of beach. The sunsets were spectacular.

This amazing shop has every spice you can think of from all over the world, with advice on the uses of blends as well as single spices. Found two different Malabar long peppers which is hard to source. The display, the packaging, the glorious overall exotic scent as you go in - all make this a brilliant destination if you are any sort of a cook. We actually used the branch in Cancale for our purchases.
