If you decide to devote your entire vacation to this lovely corner of Brittany, you should prepare a program of excursions not only in the city, but also in its surroundings. The cost of excursions in Saint-Malo is relatively small - you can visit any museum with an entrance ticket costing 5 EUR. And the ticket to the famous Grand Aquarium will cost you 16 EUR per person.
The program of excursions in Saint-Malo must include a bus trip to the pearl of northern France - the Abbey of Mont Saint-Michel. The majestic sight of the man-made cliff, which has grown 92 meters above the ocean level, with the magnificent spires of the abbey and the fortress around it shocks the imagination. The Abbey of Saint-Michel was recognized as a historical monument as early as 1874. In 1979, UNESCO recognized Mont Saint-Michel as belonging to the World Heritage of Humanity.
Up to 4 million tourists a year visit this small piece of land, cut off from the shore by the ocean at high tide! You can visit Mont Saint-Michel on a one-day bus tour.
Another place of pilgrimage of tourists in the vicinity of Saint-Malo is the village of Cancale, which is called the oyster capital of Brittany.
