Cycle loop Le Blé dur

This route takes in the vast landscapes of dried marshland, land that has been dyked and reclaimed from the sea. Here, the marshes roll out their uniform, bare horizon, a landscape criss-crossed by cereal crops. You'll reach the seafront, where on a clear day you'll be able to see the island of Ré. The rest of the route takes you to l'Aiguillon-sur-mer, its port and oyster beds. If you walk along the beach at low tide, you'll notice the "bouchots", oak stakes used to raise the bouchot mussel.
