Active Pursuits in St-Malo

Along the coast, stretches of sand intersperse with rugged outcroppings that suggest fortresses protect Brittany from Atlantic storms. Both the Grande Plage du Sillon and the Plage de Bon Secours, west of the city walls, are very popular. Situated between the two, the Plage de l’Eventail is small and especially rocky. Beach amenities are scarce, but Sillon does have lifeguards on duty in the summertime.
