Beautiful and diverse landscapes
Take a hike along the shoreline near Grand-Village-Plage and experience pine forests, marshes, and the beach. As you head north where the coast is rocky, you'll spot horseshoe-shaped stone walls when the tide is low.
These walls are fish traps, a traditional practice that passionate individuals still actively maintain. Don't miss a visit to Pointe de Gatseau and explore the untamed nature of Pertuis de Maumusson. From Saint-Georges d'Oléron to Chassiron Lighthouse/em>, passing through the Saumonards Forest and Boyardville, you'll enjoy a refreshing change of scenery.
