Ile d´Oleron (Oleron island), France
Ile d'Oleron (Oleron island) France 2013, the Atlantic coast of France (due west of Rochefort), on the southern side of the Pertuis d'Antioche strait.
As a large Atlantic island only 3 kilometres off the Aquitanian coast of France, Oléron is a popular tourist destination for people all over France. There are very few foreign tourists. The months of July and especially August are most crowded, as most French people take their holidays during that time. The island has long-stretched beaches, and surfing and horse-riding are catered for. Besides, there are many old buildings scattered around. The campsites are popular with families. Several companies operate boat trips from the town of Boyardville to the nearby Ile d'Aix and past the famous Fort Boyard. The gastronomy is also a tourist attraction as the island has many restaurants specialising in seafood, especially the local oysters. The port towns are most visited by tourists, especially the village of La Cotiniere. This village is the base point for hundred trawlers who sell their fish every day at 5h and 16h. La Cotiniere is the first fishing port of the department of Charente-Maritime, and the 8th of France.

Découverte de l’Île d’Oléron – Terres de France
Chaîne YouTube officielle de l'émission Terres de France.
L’île d’Oléron, c’est un endroit vraiment incroyable. Est-ce que vous saviez que c’est la 2e plus grande île métropolitaine après la Corse ?
Plage, marais, forêt, réserve naturelle, dunes… autant vous le dire, ici, la nature est omniprésente ! On vous a donc préparé un beau programme.
Juste après avoir traversé le pont, on prend la direction de Château-d’Oléron et de son petit port très coloré ! Une 30aine de créateurs a investi d’anciennes cabanes d’ostréiculteurs. Une manière intelligente de préserver ce fabuleux patrimoine.
Charlotte a rendez-vous avec Emilie et sa jolie cabane orange. Elle préside l’association « Couleurs Cabane ».
Direction ensuite, le nord de l’île à la pointe de Chassiron. Les oléronais appellent cet endroit « Le bout du monde ».
On va profiter de la marée basse pour aller s’y balader avec Jean-Baptiste
Dernière étape du jour, la côte-est de l’île pour y faire une nouvelle balade gustative… mais cette fois pour y gouter les plantes des dunes de sables.

Valras Plage Holiday Guide | South France Holiday Villas
Read the full article on
Valras is a bustling and typical southern French seaside resort. With its port, long sandy beach, promenade and diverse activities, it makes an excellent base for a summer holiday.
Kids love Valras Plage as the promenade seems to have been built specially for them; rollerblading along its flat surface with a stop-off at the little adventure park towards the marina is great fun. Then a stroll around the marina itself to see the fishing and numerous pleasure boats and, in the summer, there is usually a fairground (fete foraine) with tall toboggans and bumper cars. For the smaller kiddies, there is the lady who hires out little pony tricycles...
