Hotels near Dinard–Pleurtuit–Saint-Malo Airport - DNR, Dinard

Dinard is a hidden gem very close to St. Malo. It is an elegant seaside resort with wide and clean sand beaches. The town itself is spotless and very well managed, apparently very affluent as houses are big and well maintained.

Ideal if you want to visit France, most of the locals I came across had limited English, meaning that I was able to practice my French. Its not a tourist trap, we ate were the locals ate as you should when you want to sample another culture. Its a pretty little town I found it relaxed and safe. It is close to St Malo for the ferry but also Dinar and a little further north is Saint-Lunaire with an amazing beach.

Dinard is a great location for a family beach holiday but also for visiting the numerous sites of interests in that region of Brittany and Normandy. Whilst there, we visited St Malo, Le Mont St Michel, Dinan, Fort La Latte and Le Val-Andre amongst many others. Lots of history but also countryside. Great boat trips from Dinard to lots of places. Easy to get around on foot - lovely Promenade Du Clair de Lune which followed the coast around the bay.

It's a perfect location for an overnight stay before catching the ferry home. There are some lovely walks around the estuary, the barrage is interesting, and it's not far to walk to some local restaurants.

The coastal path collects all the main beaches and leads you alongside the sea below the grand villas. When the sun shines the sea is emerald. Plenty of restaurants and cafes. Interesting shops, art studios etc. UK/Irish film festival in October.
