The Poitou-Charentes / Vendee / Charente Maritime region
The Charente/Vendee region The department of Charente-Maritime is situated on the west coast of France between Nantes and Bordeaux. Beautiful sandy beaches line the coast and the area is famous for its oyster farms and salt flats. The historic port of La Rochelle lies at the centre of the department and is the access point for the Ile de Ré.
The Ile de Ré is a beautiful island just off the coast of La Rochelle which has managed to keep much of its authentic character. It is dotted with nature reserves where multitudes of wild birds and animals live, protected from the advance of technology and mankind. The island is famous for its salt, which is collected by salters towards the western end of the island, its oysters and its potatoes, all of which you can enjoy in the many restaurants scattered throughout the island’s villages.
The waters around the Ile de Ré are loved by all watersports enthusiasts – windsurfers, yachtsmen and all sailors. The Atlantic Ocean is much less dangerous here than in other areas of the mainland coast so bathing is recommended for all.
To make your way around the island, get yourself a bike – it is by far the easiest and healthiest way to travel. There are more than 60 miles of specially adapted cycle paths which link all the main villages and beaches. In addition, the island is exceptionally flat so hard work is kept to a minimum. You can hire bikes, child seats, carriages - you name it, from the multitude of rental shops throughout the island.
Ile de Re / St Martin area
St. Martin is the island capital, and the perfect base from which to explore the island by bike: start your day with a visit to the indoor market to stock up on fresh fruit, cheeses, cold meats and bread before you head off to Ars, the salt marshes of the north and a perhaps a visit to the lighthouse at St. Clement. Watersports (sailing, windsurfing...), horseriding and even golfing are all readily available. You could, of course, simply go for a long stroll along the beach, or enjoy a glass of wine at one of the many cafés around the lively port area.
