Les Sables d'Olonne

With its beach of three kilometers of fine sand facing due south, its wild coast, its 1200 hectares of forest and more than 2600 hours of sunshine per year, this pretty town of Les Sables d'Olonne has serious assets.

Freshly landed from the fishing port of Les Sables d'Olonne, the largest in the Vendée, seafood and fish such as bass, sole, sardines, langoustines and oysters await you on the market stalls and on the restaurant tables.

It is also here that the start of the famous "Vendée Globe" sailing race takes place every 4 years, a solo non-stop round the world race.
