Ile d'Oléron is the largest and southernmost French island on the Atlantic coast.

It presents large natural and wild spaces (coasts, forests, marshes). The many forest paths and cycle paths allow its discovery on foot or by bike.

The quality of the water and the mildness of its micro-climate allow swimming from April to October. The fauna and flora benefit from these exceptional conditions; oleanders, hollyhocks, tamarisks and mimosas color and perfume the island.

After exploring the dunes and forests, one can only dwell on the flora of the marshes and the multiple species of birds and mammals, in particular the oyster route and the moeze nature reserve .
Its immense sandy beaches and its coast offer relaxation and games, sea bathing, a variety of fishing and the practice of various sports activities.

Everyone will taste the joys of tonic waters and succumb to the beauty of the landscapes with multiple scents.
