Once you reach the Île de Ré bridge, you can easily reach the center of La Rochelle via the cycle paths. Along the way: the tourist office at the Maison de la baie du marais poitevin, various mussel and oyster tasting huts, the charming Port du Plomb, a tavern behind the beach at Anse de Pampin in the summer, etc.
