Saint-Nazaire, an industrial town with a natural feel

Significant port and industrial activity

Saint-Nazaire is a rather atypical town between port, industrial and cultural activity. There are many ways to explore the town's industrial past:

- First of all, you can visit the shipyards, an exceptional site that has seen the birth of world-renowned ocean liners, such as the Queen Mary 2.

- Escal'Atlantique invites you to immerse yourself in the heart of gigantic ocean liners. Explore the decks and passageways, watch the sea, discover the collectibles, very much out of the Normandie or the France. The tour invites young and old alike to discover the world of the great transatlantic liners.

- Enjoy an exceptional experience on board the submarine Swordfish. Entire weeks underwater without seeing the light of day, a single shower for 65 men: you will know everything about life on board.

.

- Discover the technical and human evolution of the naval and aeronautical industries in Saint-Nazaire. This tour will give you an insight into the history of a town that was built twice in one century.

- The incredible "machines of the sky", the ateliers d'Airbus open their doors to you for a 2-hour guided tour.
