Rennes Travel Guide
France
Rennes is a city of 209,375 people in north-west France and the regional capital of Brittany. It is inland, so the city itself is not a beach destination.
Most air travellers arrive at Rennes Bretagne Airport, the airport serving the city. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so coastal trips require travelling farther from Rennes.
