Enjoy the tranquillity of the shoulder season and discover the landscapes of the Emerald Coast enhanced by the colours of autumn. And to make the most of this beautiful season, we’ve selected the must-see experiences you won’t want to miss. Follow the guide – we’ve got a fantastic programme in store for you! Come and discover autumn.


Get some fresh air and slow down

Choosing to travel out of season, once most people have returned home, comes with a few advantages. Walks with hardly anyone around, quieter beaches, autumn colours in the countryside… Tempting, isn’t it?

So, make the most of the autumn sunshine and explore the great outdoors. In the wonderfully unspoilt natural surroundings of Dinard Côte d’Émeraude, set off on foot or by bike to admire the dramatic landscapes of the Emerald Coast. Along the seafront or beside the Rance, beaches, coves, rocks, cliffs and elegant seaside villas follow one another. A truly special tête-à-tête between you and nature!

It’s also the perfect time to slow down and take a break. Relax! Thalassotherapy, massages, spas… Everything is in place for a moment of pure relaxation.

Our ideas for discovering the wonderful colours of autumn. They will reveal a different side to our coastline and countryside.
