Tips
As early as the 19th century, the town of Port-des-Barques had coastal defenses which were gradually reworked over the course of the storms. In February 2010, during storm Xynthia, overall nearly 400 houses and several businesses were affected by the water. Since this dramatic event housing estates have been downgraded and deconstructed and the dyke has been reinforced.
