It's impossible not to visit the Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel during your stay in France. Best Western Ducey. Stretching from Granville to Cancale, it changes dramatically with the tides. Visiting the Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel at high tide and low tide is an entirely different experience. It takes its name directly from Mont-Sain-Michel, a commune situated on a rocky offshore island. The village was designated a "Heritage Village" in 2023 to highlight its tangible and intangible heritage. The entire islet, as well as the coastal area, was added to UNESCO's World Heritage List in 1979.
