Dinard
Opposite St Malo, sitting atop a rocky headland above the Rance,
Dinard was a popular holiday spot with the British in Edwardian
times; they still visit today for the bracing sea air and a stroll
along the promenade. The seafront is lined with Victorian
buildings, which ensure the town still retains its elegant and
sedate old world character.
The main Dinard beach is La Grande Plage, a strip of sand
between the two peninsulas that define the edges of the old town.
It is popular with families on holiday here and is crowded on hot
days. Smaller and more isolated is Plage de St-Enogat, a 20-minute
walk east through the village of St-Enogat, or Plage du Prieuré,
just a 10-minute walk from Dinard.
There is a great difference between high and low tides, and
swimming pools along the Grand Plage and the Plage du Prieuré
beaches catch seawater during high tides for those who opt not to
make the trek along the salt flats during low tides to bathe in the
sea.
