The Saint-Malo City Guides answer the questions every visitor brings: which crêperie inside the walls deserves the wait, when you can walk out to the Grand Bé, where to drink cider as the sun drops behind the ramparts and how to reach Mont-Saint-Michel or Dinard without a car. Each guide is a short list with a clear opinion: why each place earns its spot, what to order or look for and one practical tip. It opens in your browser as soon as you pay.

Three places from the guides
Le Cambusier
6 Rue des Cordiers, intra-muros
A small Bib Gourmand bistro with a set menu that follows the catch: mackerel, scallops in season, oysters from Cancale. Around €40 to €55, fair for cooking this careful, and children get a real menu of their own. From the food guide.
Môle des Noires
Harbour jetty below the south-west walls
A long stone jetty ending at a little lighthouse with a red top. Walk to the end and turn round: the walls fill the view, Dinard sits across the estuary and ferries slide past. From the things to do guide.
Marché aux Huîtres de Cancale
Port de la Houle, Cancale, about 30 min by coach
Oyster farmers sell from stalls along the sea wall, looking over the beds towards Mont-Saint-Michel. They open a dozen while you wait, roughly €6 to €12, and you eat on the steps and toss the shells onto the sand. From the beaches and day trips guide.
Plan your days in Saint-Malo
Day one: walk the ramparts in the morning, cross to the Grand Bé when the tide is out, then a galette lunch inside the walls and a sunset drink in the old town. Day two: take the little boat to Dinard or a coach to Cancale for oysters on the sea wall, and end with dinner in Saint-Servan. For a rainy or slow day, mix the family and budget guides: the aquarium or the Aquamalo pool, the cathedral, a covered market and a long lunch over a set menu.
