Kids rule! It’s a place where all the family can indulge in a host of activities.

There is an exceptional wooded environment and 20 km of safe, gently sloping beaches with lifeguards to watch over you while you play. Although it is a child-friendly place, there's plenty for adults too: golf, thalassotherapy, fishing, bike rides or picnics beneath the pine trees give perfect opportunities to create memorable holiday moments!
Try sand yachting at La Barre-de-Monts, Saint-Jean-de-Monts or Notre-Dame-de-Monts. Miles of flat beaches provide the setting for the little known sport of ‘sand yachting’. Buggies withkites glide across the beaches. Where there are inland marshes, there is aconstant breeze and, even when it’s anti-cyclonic, the sails still catch the wind.
