The Surroundings
Cap à l'Ouest 85 is very close to the cycle paths; come explore these backroads. Discover the salt marshes, the national forest, the beaches, the lighthouses...
Many beautiful rides await.
The Salt Marshes
Feel free to take a walk around Olonne sur mer, Ile d'Olonne or Brem sur mer, you will discover a relaxing and unique landscape in the salt marshes.
The Forest
Classified as a Natura 2000 site, the Olonne forest stretches for 11 km and acts as a bulwark against the sea's onslaught by stabilizing the dunes.
It shelters numerous animal species, including deer and wild boar.
Come climb "La Butte de Ski" (The Ski Hill), 37 meters high, and you'll catch a glimpse of the sea and the marsh.
A perfect itinerary for creating unforgettable memories.
The Beaches
The beaches of Les Sables d'Olonne are numerous: the main beach, with its promenade and sheltered cove.
L'Aubraie, La Paracou, and Sauveterre are wilder, more authentic beaches. They are ideal for enjoying a picnic, drinks with friends, or watching the sunset.
Worth discovering...
Lîle Penotte
This charming, picturesque, and fun pedestrian neighborhood bears the name of an island, even though it's nestled in the city center, behind the Remblai (seafront promenade), at the turn of narrow, winding streets.
The artist, Danièle Arnaud Aubin, known as "Dan," draws inspiration from mythology, fairy tales, and fantasy stories… She creates them using seashells collected during her travels.
Mecamax
Located in the town of L'Île-d'Olonne, in the heart of the wind farm, Mecamax welcomes you to the largest karting and quad biking center in Les Sables-d'Olonne.
