On the north coast of France, Dinard Pleurtuit Airport, also known as Saint Malo Airport, is only a short car journey from both the centres of Dinard and Saint Malo. Take this opportunity to hire a car and start your holiday as soon as you land.
Things to See and Do in Dinard
Dinard is a fantastic place to spend some time and you should make the most of it whilst you are here. Not only are there lots of things to do, but it also makes for a great base for exploring the surrounding area.
There are some fantastic restaurants and cafés dotted along the seafront, with spectacular views over the sea. You can also spend some time visiting the famous Dinard Street Market, where you can buy anything and everything. Take your time to negotiate here and bag yourself a bargain.
Day Trips From Dinard
Just across the river from Dinard is the beautiful city of Saint Malo. It is one of Brittany’s true gems and is a popular place to visit on the northern French coast. During your visit here, take a stroll through the ancient walled part of the city. It is particularly interesting to see the history of the city and how it compares to the more contemporary areas. A traditional meal at one of the local restaurants should also be a highlight.
Further afield, a trip to Rennes is definitely worthwhile. Less than an hour’s drive inland and with plenty to see, it’s well worth a visit. The Parlement de Bretagne is a famous sight, along with the delightful half-timber houses. Take the time to relax in one of the grand squares with a coffee and watch the locals go about their daily business.
