Saint Nazaire is a commune in the Loire-Atlantique department of France. It is a major harbour, on the right bank of the Loire River estuary, near the Atlantic Ocean. Saint-Nazaire is an important seaport and a great shipbuilding and industrial center with aeronautical, metallurgical, chemical, and food industries. Saint Nazaire is a town of 20 beautiful beaches namely Saint Marc, Sainte Marguerite, Pornichet, Le Poulinguen and more. The beach at Villès-Martin has always been a favourite with bathers. But Saint-Marc is still the most popular. And then there are the others, the ones without a story:
- the quiet ones like Géorama or Trébézy,
- the daring ones like Les Jaunais, where there's no need to wear a swimsuit,
- the sporting ones like La Courance where the surfers play with the waves
- the family ones like Porcé, Bonne Anse or Le Rocher du Lion
At nightfall the Saint Nazaire port comes alive, lit by a thousand fires offering a dance of shadows, lights and colors and brings a new kind of magic to the port. Standing squarely on the estuary, Saint-Nazaire can take in the Loire and the Atlantic Ocean with a single glance.
In the heart of the town, five minutes from the centre and the promenade, the Parc Paysager provides a tranquil setting for a stroll around its lake.
