Saint Malo-Dinard-Saint Lunaire
Saint-Malo is a historic French port in Ille-et-Vilaine, Brittany on the English Channel coast. The walled city had a long history of piracy, earning much wealth from local extortion and overseas adventures. In 1944, the Allies heavily bombarded Saint-Malo, which was garrisoned by German troops. The city changed into a popular tourist centre, with a ferry terminal serving the Channel Islands of Jersey and Guernsey, as well as the Southern English settlements of Portsmouth, Hampshire and Poole, Dorset.
Across the bay is Dinard, a commune in the Ille-et-Vilaine department in Brittany in northwestern France. Its beaches and mild climate make it a popular holiday destination, and this has resulted in the town having a variety of famous visitors and residents.
To the south is Saint-Lunaire with Pointe du Décollé. The Pointe du Décollé is joined to the mainland by a natural bridge over the deep Saut du Chat crevasse. Beyond the bridge, there are various possibilities for walks. From the granite cross, there is a splendid view over the Emerald Coast with Cap Fréhel in the distance.
