St Malo to Dinard ferry
Hello
We are planning our summer tour to France with 2 Circe tandems. Please does anyone know if tandems fit on the ferry across the estuary from St Malo to Dinard?
Thank you

We took the ferry from Dinard to St Malo in 2022 and the tandem went on fine, albeit diagonally across the space reserved for bikes. See the attached.
The difficult bit was getting the loaded tandem down to the embarkation point from the ticket office in Dinard. It was down some steps that had a channel along the side for bikes to be wheeled down. It was probably a good solution for an unladen solo but a tandem plus luggage took a bit of manoeuvring and we did take the luggage off! The St Malo end was fine. It may not affect you if you're disembarking at Dinard as you won't need the ticket office.
I think there are alternative embarkation points in Dinard, so it may depend which you use.
