Ideas for La Rochelle
Boating in La Rochelle
La Rochelle opens onto the Pertuis, sheltered stretches of Atlantic water between the mainland and the islands of Ré, Aix and Oléron. It is a busy sailing hub, and day trips often head to one of the islands or out to Fort Boyard.
Where to go by boat
Île de Ré
Saint-Martin-de-Ré’s harbour sits inside Vauban’s UNESCO-listed fortifications.
Île d’Aix
Small car-free island with beaches and a fortified village.
Fort Boyard
The famous sea fort between Aix and Oléron, seen from the water only.
Île d’Oléron
Large island with long beaches, oyster harbours and the Chassiron lighthouse.
Tip: The tidal range here is large: check the tide times, as some harbours, such as Saint-Martin-de-Ré, can only be entered around high water.
