Resort Description

Les Sables d’Olonne: The "Port Olonna" yachting marina – the starting and finishing point for the round-the-world non-stop "Vendée Globe" yachting race since 1989 – and the fishing port (eighth largest in France).
Two districts well worth seeing: firstly, the Ile de Penotte, a picturesque old quarter in the town centre with pedestrian alleys and façades decorated with shells by a local artist. Secondly, the La Chaume quarter, where the city originated: the fishermen’s district, with the Place Sainte Anne and its magnificent trompe l’œil fresco.
Many noteworthy monuments, such as the "Halles Centrales", now home to the food market, Notre-Dame de Bon Port Church, and St Nicolas’ Priory, today a venue for meetings and cultural events.
A number of museums: "Musée de l’Abbaye de Sainte Croix" (collection of modern and contemporary French art), "Musée de la Mer" and the "Musée du Coquillage": unique of its kind in Europe, with its 35,000 tropical shells, corals and shellfish).
The "Jardin des Salines": a protected site retracing the history of salt over the ages, where you can watch wading birds nesting in the marshes.

The surrounding area
Sea trips leaving from Fromentine (69 km): excursions to the Ile d’Yeu by catamaran or trawler.
"Musée de l’Automobile" in Talmont St Hilaire (12 km): 150 vehicles from 1885 to prototypes of the future.
Bird observatory on the Ile d’Olonne.
The Olonne-sur-Mer marshes, formed long ago when the gulf silted up. Used for breeding fish and oysters (over 4,500 hectares of earth and water strips), and is also a real bird reserve.
