Saint-Malo Airoport is known as Dinard airport and is at Pleurtuit, around eight miles or a 20-minute drive from Saint-Malo itself. As a small airport, Ryanair is the main airline flying to and from here. In the terminal building, you'll find good facilities, with information and refreshments available. Since there's no public transport to and from the airport, hiring a car here from Enterprise is an excellent idea for your travels. The airport is close to the main routes D266 and D168, which connect it to different areas in the region.

Looking around the Saint-Malo Ramparts is a must. You can park in a nearby public car park at the Quai Saint-Louis, then enjoy the bracing sea air and magnificent views. The ramparts are full of history and really spark the imagination. Visit the Saint-Malo Cathedral, a Roman Catholic church dedicated to Saint Vincent of Saragossa. It's one of France's national monuments. If you're interested in wildlife, take a tour of the Great Aquarium Saint-Malo, which opened in 1996 and has entertaining and interesting displays for all the family to enjoy.

Just a short drive away from both Saint-Malo and the airport branches of Enterprise, Dinan is a medieval town with timber-framed buildings and narrow cobbled streets. Cancale, around 10 miles east of Saint-Malo, is a picturesque fishing port. It's also Brittany's oyster capital and has many superb seafood restaurants to enjoy while you're there. Situated on the western tip of the Bay of Mont St-Michel, you can see the Mount when the weather is clear. If you drive beyond Dinard and to the Cote d'Emeraude, you'll discover many charming resorts and sandy beaches where you can stroll and relax when the weather is fine.

In addition to central car parks in Saint-Malo, which make getting to attractions such as the ramparts easy, you can also pay to park on the streets in the town. Simply buy a ticket from the machine and display it in your hire car. There's nothing particularly difficult about driving in and around St. Malo, but expect narrower streets inside the city walls. It's rare to see a traffic jam, but the roads can get busier at rush hour. Therefore, plan additional time for your journey and have a satnav or road map to help you navigate.
