The port of Les Minimes offers more than 5,000 places afloat for pleasure boats.

Despite its large size, this port is pleasant and bordered by a cycle path.

[...] "Port de Plaisance des Minimes, is the largest French marina for pleasure craft. It is located in the town of La Rochelle. Its name derives from the construction of a monastery of the Frères Minimes in this area in the Middle Ages. There are Berths for around 3,500 boats. "

Fashionable port area Les Minimes revolves around an expansive modern marina, with coastal paths through Parc des Pères and a popular urban beach at Plage des Minimes. Visitors take boat trips and drink cocktails at the waterfront bars. Student-friendly pubs and cafes surround the university buildings inland, while chic bistros serve Atlantic seafood. The Automaton Museum exhibits hand-made puppets and animatronic models.
