Magnificent view of the bay

What a beauty!

One of the nicest walks! A mix of marsh, countryside and a wonderfully pleasant last third! I did it starting from Coulon towards La Repentie to finish at the water's edge and arrive on the quay at Coulon!

North of Baie de l'Aiguillon, this sandy point was once a protection for ships. A real break between the marsh and the sea, the dunes cohabit with the mudflats and salt meadows. Located in the middle of the migratory axis, the Pointe de l'Aiguillon allows you to observe more than 400,000 migratory birds each year. From April to August, be vigilant: the Kentish Plover breeds on the beach. To preserve the eggs and the broods, please walk DOWN the beach.

All along the road to the tip, provided you take a look over the dike, you can admire this little end of the world with a view of the tip of Arçay, the port of La Rochelle and the bridge of the Island of Re. In the heart of a vast ornithological nature reserve.

This passage is very pretty, between turquoise river and vegetation. Enjoy nature close to the city of Niort!

Beginning of the sensitive natural area protected from the Breton sluice, the strait located between the northeast coast of Île de Ré and the mainland. This strait opens to the north-west on the Atlantic Ocean off Sables-d'Olonne and ends, in its south-eastern part, by the bay of l'Aiguillon (mouth of the Sèvre Niortaise) towards the north and the Ile de Ré bridge to the south.
