Dinard is recognised as the "Garden town at the edge of the sea":

It has been able to conserve the charm of the seaside resorts from the good old days. There are many walks that bear witness to the prestige of this seaside resort.

• The path from the Écluse beach towards the Saint-Enogat beach leading to the pointe de la Malouine passes in front of splendid Villas
• The path from the Barrage de la Rance to the Prieuré beach reveals a superb view onto the river mouth and the rock of Bizeux.

 

Neighbouring towns to be explored, offering a wealth of history, architecture and culture:

• Saint Malo, a pirate town, is remarkable for its town centre surrounded by ramparts. This is a prosperous town in which the architecture of its monuments bears witness to its heritage of great men. It is a top tourist destination due to its amenities and events (Route du rhum, Transat Quebec - Saint Malo).
• Dinan, classified as mediaeval heritage site, is remarkable for its 18th century architecture and the green landscapes of the Rance. It is a town of Art and History: you can discover the 15th century windmill, wood panelled houses, Maison d’Artistes de la Grande Vigne, and many other sites

 

The Route du Rhum, an exceptional event

It is from Saint Malo, just opposite Dinard, every 4 years, that the start of this single-handed transatlantic yacht race takes place. It is run from Saint Malo to Pointe-à-Pître and most likely takes its name from its destination. Next November 2014, the 10^th edition of this race will bring together all those keen on sailing and strong sensations.

The British Film Festival in Dinard

Since 1990, at the initiative of Thierry de La Fournière, the British Film Festival is held here with 6 films entering into competition. The best film wins the Golden Hitchcock which is awarded by a jury of celebrities. This festival follows a long tradition of sharing and open-mindedness.
