Timeline
16:36
Pick up a bottle of wine and a simple snack at Le Verre Volé. This part wine bar and shop is open until 20:00 on weekdays, so you have plenty of time to browse and grab something to tide you over before the sun goes down.
17:06
Walk over to the Promenade Canal St. Martin. Find a spot by the water’s edge. The canal offers clear views of the sunset toward the WSW. The atmosphere is perfect for lingering and watching the light fade.
17:51
Return to Le Verre Volé to enjoy your wine and snack properly. It is a short walk back, and the venue stays open late enough to let you relax and digest the view you just witnessed.
