In summer, few beaches allow them. In Saint-Briac-sur-Mer, in Ille-et-Vilaine, the city has decided to dedicate a beach to dogs, a cani-beach.

Bask in the sun, on the hot sand, take a sea bath in complete freedom, it is now possible all year round, for dogs. The beach of Saint-Briac-sur-Mer (Ille-et-Vilaine) is accessible to them even during the summer. Dogs and their owners dreamed of it. « It’s very good, because it allows the dogs to stretch themselves a little bit. (…) It’s good to have a small place to be able to bring them« , said a man. « He needs to let off steam, we also need the beach. Waiting until the end of September is a bit long, so even if it’s very small, it’s very good“, assures a woman.

Demonstrate civility

This life-size test, it is the town hall of Saint-Briac who wished it, thus responding to a strong demand from its citizens. Tertre Pelé beach was chosen because it is the least frequented of the seaside resort. In a few days, a bag dispenser and garbage cans will be installed, because experimentation will have to rhyme with cleanliness. « Dog owners really need to be civil, be reasonable and leave the beach as clean as possible« , declares Philippe Fourneyron, mayor (SE) of Saint-Briac-sur-Mer (Ille-et-Vilaine). Here, there are no restrictions, even the leash is not compulsory. A unique place on the Emerald Coast.
