Fort National is housed on a tiny island accessible only at low tide. Built by the military architect Vaubun to prevent the invasion of Saint-Malo by the English and Dutch in the 17th century, the fort is open to visitors when the French flag can be seen flying high above the stone walls. Individual explorers and groups can make their way across the sand to the drawbridge where they will meet experienced guides well-versed in the history of the fort. Looking back on the city of Saint-Malo, guests will be treated to a panoramic view of its breathtaking bay.
