    Chars à voile are wheeled vehicles propelled by a sail. They are also used for a sport and leisure activity that consists of driving these vehicles. They are practiced on large sandy beaches and sometimes inland. The first known use of chars à voile dates back to ancient Egypt, where they were apparently built to transport and move materials quickly. The Chinese had wind-driven carts since the 6th century under the Liang dynasty, later mounting masts and sails on large barrows. The engineer Simon Stevin rediscovered the concept in Holland at the end of the 16th century by building a ship on wheels that carried 28 people over 75 km at an average speed of 37 km/h between Scheveningen and Petten on the beaches of the North Sea.

      Long beach with soft sand at the top and very compact at low tide for sand yachts
