May, the ideal month to get away for a few days before the summer holidays! With the mild spring weather and long weekends, it’s the perfect time for you and your family to take a well-deserved break… But where to go in May? Whether you opt for the seaside, countryside or a cultural escapade, create your own custom getaway with Sandaya!
Brittany: for its sea air and authentic charm
For a long weekend in May, pick a stay in Brittany and enjoy the stunning beaches that line the Atlantic Ocean. And if you’re feeling adventurous, why not hop aboard a three-masted sailing ship to explore the Breton archipelagos? Belle-Île-en-Mer, Groix, the Glénan Islands, there’s so much to discover…
If we say Saint-Malo, Rennes, Cancale, Dinard… do you know where we are? Yes, it’s the Ille-et-Vilaine! Here you can embark on a cultural getaway, including a visit to Mont-Saint-Michel. Meanwhile, nature lovers will appreciate the unspoilt environment of the Côtes-d’Armor, where beaches and coves look out on mesmerising turquoise waters.

New Aquitaine: embrace nature by the sea
Dreaming of nature, lazy days by the sea and scenic hiking trails? But where to find all that in May...? In the Nouvelle-Aquitaine, take in the serene countryside of the Dordogne and the sweeping pine forests of the Landes de Gascogne – two distinct destinations, each offering a welcome dose of fresh air.
Beyond forest walks, enjoy Europe’s largest beach and the vast lakes of the Aquitaine for a family holiday or romantic escapade by the water’s edge.
