So is that a magic number???...in any case, I will use it tomorrow. Too late to call now since I am I figure 9 hours behind Mont st michel. When are you going?
I just am determined to stay on the island...I will keep calling the hotels listed in Rick Steves book until I get to the TOP!
Thanks for your help.

Since Dinan, St-Malo and the MSM are quite close, yes, it's doable in a day, though personnally I wouldn't visit both on the same day.
However, I would forget about Dinard. Not only three towns in a day seems a bit much but also honestly, I don't think Dinard is very interesting.

Someone posted that high tides only occurred a few times a year. That is not correct--they come in twice each month--maybe with the full moon. We did experience the tides last year and the hotels will warn you to move your car to higher ground. The tide came in in the evening & again the next morning. We were not able to walk on the sands beause of quick sand. We loved the Mont & it is worth staying overnight. Abbey is very steep walk. Just don't bother to eat at the overpriced omelet place.
