سان-نازير (Saint-Nazaire ؛ النطق الفرنسي: [sɛ̃.na.zɛʁ]; بريتانية: Sant-Nazer/Señ Neñseir; Gallo: Saint-Nazère/Saint-Nazaer) هوcommune في إقليم اللوار الأطلسي في غرب فرنسا، في بريتاني التقليدية.

The town has a major harbour on the right bank of the Loire River estuary, near the Atlantic Ocean. The town is at the south of the second-largest swamp in France, called "la Brière". Given its location, Saint-Nazaire has a long tradition of fishing and shipbuilding. The Chantiers de l'Atlantique, one of the largest shipyards in the world, has constructed notable superliners such as , , and , the largest passenger ship in the world اعتبارا من 2018^[تحديث].

Saint-Nazaire was a small village until the industrial area but became a large town in the second half of the 19th century, thanks to the construction of railways and the growth of the seaport. Saint-Nazaire progressively replaced Nantes as the main haven on the Loire estuary. The town was one of the most damaged in France during World War II. As a major submarine base for the Germans, Saint-Nazaire was subject to a British raid in 1942 and it was heavily bombed by the Allies until 1945. Being one of the Atlantic pockets, Saint-Nazaire was one of the last territories in Europe to be liberated from the Germans, on 11 May 1945.
