Dinard, elegance and seaside in Brittany
Welcome to Dinard, pearl of the Emerald Coast, renowned for its fine sandy beaches, its Belle Époque villas and its chic and preserved atmosphere. Its seafront, lined with sumptuous 19th century residences, recalls its past as a seaside resort popular with the aristocracy.
An exceptional architectural heritage
Dinard is a town where every street reveals architectural treasures. The Belle Époque villas, built into the cliffside, bear witness to the resort's golden age. The Promenade du Clair de Lune, with its palm trees and flower gardens, offers a breathtaking view of Saint-Malo and the bay. We recommend visiting the Villa Roches Brunes, open to the public during temporary exhibitions, which perfectly illustrates the refinement of Dinard at the beginning of the 20th century.
Unforgettable beaches and panoramas
Dinard has some beautiful beaches, such as the Plage de l'Écluse, ideal for a family swim, and the Plage du Prieuré, which is quieter and perfect for a walk with your feet in the water. Hiking enthusiasts will appreciate the Sentier des Douaniers (GR34), which runs along the coast and offers spectacular views. The gem not to be missed: Take the shuttle boat to Saint-Malo to discover its ramparts and historic center in just 10 minutes of crossing.
A tasty and salty gastronomy
Seafood is in the spotlight in Dinard, with specialties such as Cancale oysters, scallops and the famous Breton galette, accompanied by a glass of local cider.
