La Tranche sur Mer
From the pier, you can take boat trips to Ile De Ré, Ile D’Oléron, Ile D’Aix and Fort Boyard with the Inter-iles company.
It’s also a place where you can go for a walk, get away from it all, recharge your batteries and take a deep breath of sea air.
You can fish for shellfish on foot or at sea.
You can also see the Grouin du cou lighthouse and several blockhouses.
The lighthouse guards the entrance to the Pertuis Breton, the strait between the east coast of the Ile De Ré and the mainland.
This place is a magnet for holidaymakers.
The Belle Henriette nature reserve is also popular at high tide.
There are many listed plant species.
There’s also a market on Tuesday and Saturday mornings.
