Is any particular day better than others? Or is a certain time of day best? What time of year is best for a visit?<\/p>\n<p>To answer these questions, we took it upon ourselves to study the subject.

If you want to admire the beauties hidden in Mont-Saint-Michel while enjoying the sun on an empty island, we advise visiting <strong>during the week<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>For example, you should plan a trip on a <strong>Tuesday <\/strong>or a <strong>Thursday <\/strong>in September.<\/p>\n<p>In <strong>September<\/strong>, most tourists and visitors are at school or at work, the sun is out (temperatures are around <strong>20\u00b0C\/68\u00b0F<\/strong>), and the island is a lot calmer than it is during the summer.<\/p>\n<p>Late fall and winter are great times to visit from a financial standpoint, but the weather is also cooler and rain is more frequent. In <strong>January <\/strong>and in <strong>November<\/strong>, temperatures generally don\u2019t get higher than <strong>7\u00b0C (45\u00b0F)<\/strong> and there are approximately <strong>eighteen rainy days<\/strong> in each of these months.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to avoid rain at all costs and get to enjoy the stunning landscapes and the sun, you should plan a trip at the beginning of <b>September<\/b>. There will still be a few tourists but far fewer than in July and August and it should still be sunny. You will also be able to admire the <b>spectacular high tides of Continental Europe.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>To ensure that you get to see these awesome tides and watch Mont-Saint-Michel turn into an island, make sure that you arrive <strong>two hours prior<\/strong> to the time indicated on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ot-montsaintmichel.com\/en\/tide-schedules\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><strong>tides calendar<\/strong><\/a> (tides with a 110 coefficient are considered \u201chigh\u201d).<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re planning to stay for longer than one day, be sure to check out our list of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.france-hotel-guide.com\/en\/blog\/stay-mont-saint-michel\/\" rel=\"\">best hotels on and around Mont-Saint-Michel<\/a> (onsite hotels can be expensive!).

The wait just to enter these places can be up to an hour long!<\/p>\n<p>You may also have to wait for the free shuttle bus <em>Le Passeur<\/em> during the summer. (Please note that you can <strong>walk to the islet thanks to the <em>Pont Passerelle<\/em><\/strong> &#8211; it will take you about 50 minutes from the <em>Place des Navettes<\/em>.)<\/p>\n<p>Crowds are usually largest at this time of year also, mostly due to foreign visitors who often take one or more of the <strong>guided tours<\/strong> that occur throughout the day all over Mont-Saint-Michel.<\/p>\n<p>During the <strong>summer holidays<\/strong>, the sun sets much later than usual (around <strong>10pm<\/strong>), temperatures get warmer (averaging <strong>22\u00b0C\/72\u00b0F<\/strong>), and events are more frequent (the <strong><em>Festival d\u2019Arts Chr\u00e9tiens<\/em><\/strong><em>, <\/em>the <strong><em>Jazz en Baie<\/em> festival<\/strong>\u2026). All of this results in larger crowds than in September, for instance.<\/p>\n<p>We also advise that you avoid going on a<strong> long weekend<\/strong> such as those in <strong>May<\/strong> (Labor Day, National day, May 8th, Ascension\u2026). During long weekends and <strong>public holidays<\/strong>, people have more time and tend to book longer trips. Additionally, peak seasons typically have higher prices.<\/p>\n<p>If summertime is the only time of the year you are available, <strong>late July<\/strong> is the best time for an escapade to Mont-Saint-Michel. The <strong>last two weeks<\/strong> are busy, but since they come right after a long weekend (July 14th) and before August (the busiest month of the year), they tend to be a little calmer.<\/p>\n<p>Be sure to take advantage of the morning hours, which are the quietest part of the day (crowds are at their highest between 11am and 4pm). The <strong>monuments <\/strong>and <strong>shops <\/strong>on the islet usually open around <strong>9am<\/strong>, so if you arrive at 7:30am, you\u2019ll be able to enjoy the relatively tourist-free island for at least an hour and a half.<\/p>\n<p>The second calmest part of the day is the evening, around <strong>7pm<\/strong>. At this time the shops and museums are closing and the number of visitors drops, allowing you to admire Mont-Saint-Michel by night. (The <strong>free shuttle bus<\/strong> <em>Le Passeur<\/em> runs every 20 minutes until <strong>midnight<\/strong>.)<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16741\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16741\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16741 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.france-hotel-guide.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/passeur-mont-saint-michel.jpg\" alt=\"Mont saint michel bus\" width=\"620\" height=\"414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.france-hotel-guide.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/passeur-mont-saint-michel.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.france-hotel-guide.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/passeur-mont-saint-michel-475x317.jpg 475w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16741\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The shuttle bus <em>Le Passeur<\/em> &#8211; Photo credits: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/alfenaar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Alfenaar<\/a> via <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/2.0\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Creative Commons CC BY-SA 2.0<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>When it comes to eating on the islet, we advise bringing your own meal.

It also allows you to miss the long lines to enter the sites and to appreciate their beauty in peace.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve already planned your day and you want to visit the abbey during the day, you can buy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cometoparis.com\/rates\/mont-saint-michel-s1101?partner=france-hotel-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><strong>tickets<\/strong><\/a> that allow you to enter without waiting in line.<\/p>\n<p>Just be sure to check the monuments&#8217; and museums&#8217; schedules beforehand as they vary with the seasons!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>2) Park a little farther away<\/h3>\n<p>There are parking lots right next to Mont-Saint-Michel, and there are<strong> shuttle buses <\/strong>that will take you right to the island from those parking lots. But parking your car in one of these lots can cost between <strong>\u20ac9 <\/strong>a <strong>\u20ac15 <\/strong>a day, depending on the season.<\/p>\n<p>We recommend parking in the nearby city of <strong>Pontorson<\/strong>. It&#8217;s only a 10-minute drive away, and you can park your car for <strong>free<\/strong>. For a fare of around \u20ac3, the bus will take you to Mont-Saint-Michel (the bus stops at the same location as the free shuttle buses provided by the island).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>3) Appreciate the peacefulness of the night<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16740\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16740\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16740\" src=\"https:\/\/www.france-hotel-guide.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mont-saint-michel-nuit.jpg\" alt=\"Mont saint michel\" width=\"620\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.france-hotel-guide.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mont-saint-michel-nuit.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.france-hotel-guide.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mont-saint-michel-nuit-475x316.jpg 475w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16740\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Mont Saint-Michel by night<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We recommend completing your visit with a stroll on the island at night. By 7pm the island is usually not as packed as it is during the day and you can appreciate the peace of the islet.<\/p>\n<p>During summer, you can experience a magical moment at night. The sun sets between 9pm and 10pm, offering a stunning view of Mont-Saint-Michel.<\/p>\n<p>Because <em>Le Passeur<\/em> runs from 7:30am to midnight, you can even stay to admire the <strong>quirky <\/strong>view of a <strong>lit up <\/strong>Mont-Saint-Michel before leaving.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that, except for in the summer, temperatures are cooler at night, so be prepared to wear warmer clothes at night.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>FAQ<\/h2>\n<h3>When is the best time to visit Mont-Saint-Michel?<\/h3>\n<p>If you want to witness stunning high tides, the beginning of September is the best time (make sure to check the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ot-montsaintmichel.com\/en\/tide-schedules\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">tide calendar<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>If you want sunny weather and a peaceful island, the month of June is also interesting.<\/p>\n<h3>When are the crowds the smallest on Mont-Saint-Michel?<\/h3>\n<p>During off-peak seasons: from September to February (not including the Christmas holidays).<\/p>\n<p>Please note that, while there are fewer people on the island, October, November, and December also are the coldest and rainiest months of the year.<\/p>\n<h3>When are the crowds the largest on Mont-Saint-Michel?<\/h3>\n<p>Crowds are larger during school holidays and the summer. The different events throughout the year also cause an increase in the number of visitors. This is especially true during the Mont-Saint-Michel Marathon in May.<\/p>\n<h3>What weekday is the least crowded on Mont-Saint-Michel?<\/h3>\n<p>Tuesdays and Thursdays are the calmest days. Visitors tend to book long weekends and spread their stay out over Mondays and Fridays. Because children don\u2019t have school on Wednesdays, the crowds tend to be larger on Wednesdays as well.<\/p>\n<h3>What\u2019s the best time to arrive at Mont-Saint-Michel?<\/h3>\n<p>If you want to visit the abbey and the island&#8217;s museums, it\u2019s best to arrive at opening time (the abbey opens at 9am or 9:30am depending on the season, and the museums open at 10am). The free shuttle bus <em>Le Passeur<\/em> starts running at 7:30am or 8:30am, depending on the season.<\/p>\n<p>Another option is to come just before the abbey and museums close (at 5pm or 6pm). Visitors generally leave between 6pm and 7pm, and aside from some restaurants, most of the island\u2019s shops close at 7pm. This makes the atmosphere much calmer and the crowds more bearable.<\/p>\n<p>We highly recommend this alternative during summer when the number of visitors is at its highest. Most importantly, in the summer you can still appreciate Mont-Saint-Michel by day and admire the sunset even if you don&#8217;t arrive until later in the afternoon. The shuttle bus <em>Le Passeur<\/em> runs until midnight, so you have no reason to miss out on the sunset and the island at night!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mont-Saint-Michel is a must-see destination in France.
