Description
Starting from Mont Saint-Michel, a beautiful and unmissable crossing to discover the vastness of the Bay, from Mont Saint-Michel to Tombelaine, in the heart of the Bay. More than just a discovery, a real introduction to the Bay coupled with a breathtaking view of Mont Saint-Michel!
On the program: Wide open spaces, learning about quicksand (and an introduction for those who want it), crossing waterways, information about the tides, fauna and flora, history and legends, and more.
An immersive experience in an iconic site that combines natural heritage and history: for the truly curious!
As a passionate guide, I will lead you through the heart of the Bay to the mysterious islet of Tombelaine.
A lively, fully narrated loop excursion with a varied route.
Limited groups for a fun and convivial discovery.
A unique vantage point over the bay with a great breath of fresh air. 6 to 7 km / 3 to 3.5 hours
Tour with commentary in French: Foreign visitors, please use the 'Time Keetle' app for instant translation with a smartphone and headphones
From 7/8 years old from May to September / From 9/10 years old in April and October-November (crossing a watercourse)
Gear
The crossing is done barefoot and in shorts or a bathing suit in the 'summer season'. Bring:
- a hiking-style backpack for water + sun protection (hat, sunscreen, glasses)
- windproof/waterproof jacket + warm sweater/fleece
- Light footwear (Crocs, sandals, old sneakers)
- a camera (in a plastic bag), binoculars
- collar + leash for dogs (free if I am informed in detail in advance)
- a water bottle and a towel for washing your feet
My approach
As a passionate nature guide, I create unique routes for you with each tide. The goal: to let you experience unique moments in the Bay while avoiding the crowds!
