- Rob W57 contributionsLovely old walled town with lots of charmThe old town of St.Malo is located on the harbour front, and is enclosed by a wall on which you can walk the ramparts around whole old town. The views from the ramparts are lovely, and so is the old town itself, with plenty of resturants, cafes & crepe/icecream shops to choose from. Parking is relatively easy, with lots of locations around the harbour front & docks. But, the closer you are to the old town the harder it becomes (obviously really). Spent a few afternoons in the old town, and would recommend visiting.Visited July 2023Traveled with familyWritten August 1, 2023

St Malo is filled with tacky tourist shops, food sellers, restaurants and a bewildering number of accommodation houses that jam the narrow streets. My suggestion - stick to the ramparts.Visited September 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten September 22, 2023
- George SMiami Beach, Florida1,104 contributionsGood views of the old town and the bayThe ramparts are part of the wall that surrounds the old town of Saint-Malo. It is not a continuous loop but the longest section of the ramparts faces the English Channel side. Nice views of the town and the bay. It is free.Visited September 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten September 23, 2023
- Adriana YukaCastlebar, Ireland1 contributionI recommend 👍🏻We won’t forget this place, beautiful view. There’s a “beach” and a “pool” for you to enjoy warm weather. We went in the beginning of October so it was a warm weather and perfect to walk through the “walls”, taking some pictures and after this put on your swimsuit and enjoy the beach and the pool. And it wasn’t crowded ✌🏻Visited October 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten October 8, 2023

On holiday and decides to enjoy the amazing views of Sr Malo rampards. Good sturdy flat shoes needed to defy the cobbles manage the walls. Plenty of steps so not all parts of the rampards are suitable for people with mobility issues also steps to enter individual shops too inside the walls. Amazing views. We took the little train toearn the history before visiting individual places of interest. Allow at least one hour to walk the rampards and time to see the shops and have a cuppa and crepe. Bring plenty of €€ as expensive.

The old walled city Intra Muros is a must see place for any trip to Bretagne and a great place to stop for lunch. The ramparts provide fantastic views of the surrounding coastline which are stunning on a clear day. You also get great views of the old streets and structures of the old city. There are over 100 restaurants within the walls. Lots of ground level and underground parking around the city. This is a great overnight stay location with lots of hotels inside and outside the city. There is also a fantastic huge beach which you can also see clearly from the ramparts.

These ramparts are amazing. You can walk all around the old town and there a spectacular view of the sea. Be sure to be there when the high tide come in. It happenes very fast, and the splashing against the walls are beautiful to see. Especially if the sunds out.

After weeks of snow, ice, rain...and Covid, we had to get out of the house; so we headed over to St. Malo. As we love to walk, my wife and I went straight to the remparts. Whether you walk quickly or at a leisurely pace, the views of the sea, the old city and the beaches are lovely. In this time of Covid, it was also great to see restaurants and kiosks offering takeaway food—not the case in many towns and cities. Well worth a visit.

We enjoyed a lovely late summer weekend and the weather was fantastic. Strolling the ramparts there is life all around. Families on the beach, swimmers in the pool and activity center and sailing school on the beach. It is clean and beautifully historic. Wonderful to stroll and enjoy the beautiful views and sea air! There are many access points to and from the ramparts from the old city.

After an ample breakfast a walk around the remparts helps burn it off, lets you take in the views and get your bearings around the Intra Muros. The Battery be la Hollande, or Place Du Quebec and great little spots to stop have a snack or two (baguette/tarte fraise) and take in the beach views, island spot and look across to Dinard (easy ferry trip from Porte de Dinan). After a good walk around you'll have worked up an appetite for one of the restaurants/bars by the Grand Porte or Porte Saint-Thomas. Or hit the beachs below the remparts and go for a dip!

Wanted around the ramparts. Free of charge and a must do activity in Saint Malo.
On one side you look out to sea, with spectacular views. Plenty to see in terms of forts, islands, and the crashing waves.
Looking into the city there are lots of interesting buildings.
Wear good shoes as some surfaces uneven.

Un peu compliqué surtout le wwek-end. Le conseil, garez votre voiture sur le grand parking près de l'église de Rocabey, prenez devant la Poste puis longez l'école de police, vous arrivez sur le sillon et vous en prenez plein les yeux...la mer est là!!!
