Yes, you can smoke at Dinard Pleurtuit Airport (DNR) — in designated outdoor areas outside the terminal building. The terminal interior is non-smoking and there is no airside smoking area, so plan your last cigarette before you pass through security.
Where to Smoke
Dinard–Pleurtuit–Saint-Malo is a compact single-terminal airport in Brittany, near Saint-Malo, handling well under 200,000 passengers a year on a short list of mostly seasonal Ryanair routes to the UK (such as London Stansted and East Midlands). Smoking is at the designated outdoor areas just outside the terminal entrance, landside (before security). There are no smoking rooms or terraces past the checkpoint, so connecting and departing passengers should smoke before screening; when you land, you can smoke again in the same areas in front of the terminal. The walk back outside is short, and the small airside lounge has no smoking option, so light up before you screen.
Vaping
Vaping is treated the same as cigarette smoking: it is not permitted inside the terminal, so use the outdoor areas. France banned single-use disposable (“puff”) vapes in 2025, so carry a refillable device if you vape.
