Sculpted rocks near Saint Malo

A few miles away from St Malo ramparts (Intra Muros), on the way to Cancale, you will find an unusual bit of coast!

A priest called Adolphe Fouré sculpted 500 sqm of rocks between 1870 and 1895!
It is quite amazing to see.

Entrance fee €2.50

“Les Rochers sculptés” are in Rothéneuf, which is part of St Malo. About 40 minutes from our gite.

Le Grand Aquarium, St Malo

If you are renting out a gite in Brittany this summer, I would suggest visiting the Grand Aquarium in St Malo. It is about 20 minutes from Dinan, 30 min from our gite in Evran.

The Grand Aquarium invites you to discover the oceans of the world with all its sea creatures which will truly amaze you.

It is the perfect activity for a rainy day in Brittany but hopefully it won’t rain when you come over!
