Why Cancale matters
Cancale is all about oysters. Rows of oyster beds spread across the tidal flats, and at the harbour you can eat them by the dozen from a stall with a glass of white wine and a sea view. It is a short drive from Saint-Malo and Mont-Saint-Michel.
Talking points
- Oysters are sold straight from the stalls at the port.
- Oyster farming here has a long local tradition.
- A coastal path runs along the cliffs.
