Les Sables-d'Olonne seafront

Highlight • Other

Several miles of sandy beach in a warm color, inviting for swimming, mainly at high tide when the water is high above the deeper pebbles and rocks offshore. It is accompanied by a popular promenade, also used by the Vélodyssée (EuroVélo1) bike trail, that separates it from the coastal road.

Puits d'Enfer

Highlight • Gorge

Place where the sea rushes into the rock at high tide, a place whose beauty therefore depends significantly on the tides

Lake Tanchet was initially a reserve of drinking water.

From now on, it is possible to practice sailing, angling or even walking around it.

The dike located between the lake and the ocean offers superb landscapes, punctuated by rocks and sand on the sea side and denser vegetation on the lake side.
