Crique du Fort, Coastal beach in Saint-Malo, France

The Crique du Fort presents a combination of pebbled areas and sandy sections along the northern coast of Brittany, bordered by steep cliffs.

The beach sits near medieval fortifications that protected Saint-Malo from maritime invasions during the 14th century, reflecting the city's defensive past.

Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices at Crique du Fort, where they collect shellfish and set nets during specific tidal conditions.

Visitors can access the beach through marked pathways from Rue de la Tour du Bonheur, with parking available at nearby designated areas.

During low tide, the beach reveals ancient granite formations that create natural pools where marine life becomes temporarily trapped.
