Villas in Saint Lunaire
Saint-Lunaire suits families and surfers who want two big fine-sand beaches a short drive from Saint-Malo. The tide here goes out a long way, so swimming at the Grande Plage is a high-tide affair, and none of the homes has a pool.

About Saint Lunaire
Saint-Lunaire is a resort on the Côte d'Émeraude whose seafront grew up around a 19th-century Grand Hôtel and its casino. It sits between two fine-sand beaches: the Grande Plage, facing north-east under the old hotel, and Longchamp, facing north-west, where surfers have zones of their own. The Pointe du Décollé, where holiday houses went up after Dinard was created in the 1860s, is the viewpoint to walk out to. The homes sit fairly close together, mostly for four to six, and many have a garden. Evenings mean the beach restaurant and bar or a meal in town, and the 11th-century old church is worth a look on a grey day.

- Best for
- Beach families, young surfers and coast walkers

Can you surf at Saint-Lunaire?
Yes. Longchamp beach is the surf spot, with zones reserved for surfing and two surf clubs in the resort. It faces north-west, while the Grande Plage faces north-east and is used more for sailing and rowing.
Can you swim at the Grande Plage in Saint-Lunaire at low tide?
Not really. The sea goes out a long way, and swimming at low tide is strongly discouraged. Plan beach time around high water; lifeguards are on duty in season.
Are dogs allowed on Saint-Lunaire beaches?
Outside summer, yes. Animals are allowed on both the Grande Plage and Longchamp from 16 September to 14 June, and kept off them during the summer weeks in between.
What is the Pointe du Décollé in Saint-Lunaire?
A promontory where holiday houses were built after Dinard was created in the 1860s. It is a fine viewpoint, and Victor Hugo set a murder there in Toilers of the Sea.
