Vendée and Charente-Maritime also have a great selection of thalassotherapy spa centres. Check out those in Royan, La Rochelle, Ile de Ré and Les Sables d’Olonne. All the goodness of the sea against a backdrop of beautiful landscapes!
In the spring, you can also observe the many migrating birds which return to the coastal reserves here every year, just long enough for keen ornithologists to take a few snaps of them.
