An island experience on Ile d'Oléron or Ile de Ré

An island experience on Ile d'Oléron or Ile de Ré

What if you went to an island this summer? If you don't want to fly to Mauritius, Ile de Ré and Ile d'Oléron are great alternatives to meet up with family or friends. Who says island experience does not mean limited activities and boredom after 3 days, on the contrary, these two islands welcome many tourists every year and are appreciated for their beauty, their many entertainments but also their unique natural landscapes. The island of Oléron is notably the largest island in the Atlantic and will invite you to discover the famous Fort Boyard, its oyster culture but also the citadel of its castle or the sand yacht, a sport very much practised in Oléron. While the Ile de Ré, just as pretty with its hollyhocks lining the houses of the villages, has many surprises in store for you: salt marshes, sand dunes and a charming wild coast that you can discover by bike. Why not try these French islands this summer?
