    Hiking

    The Chenal du Douhet is a picturesque site located on the island of Oléron, between the towns of Saint-Georges d'Oléron and La Brée-les-Bains. Here are some interesting points about it:

    1. **Pleisure port**: The port of Douhet is a lively place, especially in summer, with a capacity of around 350 boats. It is equipped with all the amenities necessary for boaters, including a modern harbor master's office.

    2. **History**: The channel and port were developed in the 1840s to facilitate commercial salt and wine traffic. Today they are mainly used for pleasure.

    From the port of Douhait, the channel enters the land in the middle of a pretty marsh landscape. The ideal place for a bike ride thanks to the cycle path.
