Whatever the season, sometimes we want to escape the daily grind and take a break, for a few days or more. If you're hesitating about where to stay by the sea, here are 5 good reasons to choose Atlantic Royan for his next vacation in Charente-Maritime. Heritage, nature, gastronomy... we set off to discover what makes up the identity of the region and will most certainly make us want to come back, and why not, settle there.
01
Enjoy the pleasures of the beach
Our 34 fine sandy beaches are ideal for swimming, activities, walking or simply lazing around. Here, we live to the rhythm of the tides. Facing the ocean, the sound of the waves lulls us. Whether wild, natural or urban, each beach reveals a particular atmosphere.
02
Browse our preserved spaces
On foot, by bike or on horseback, the territory reveals all its beauty and diversity. The many marked paths are ideal for walks under the pines, by the sea, in the marshes or on the hillsides. We take the time to appreciate the tranquility of the great outdoors and to reconnect with nature.
03
Live the sea and estuaries
The territory is surrounded by water. The Atlantic Ocean, the Seudre and Gironde estuaries offer varied spots for practicing a wide variety of water sports and indulging in the pleasures of sliding and sailing. We cast off and set sail to fill up on sensations.
04
Immerse yourself in the history of our towns and villages
History has left traces. The architectural mix of the 50s and the Belle Epoque in Royan bears witness to this. Our authentic villages conceal just as much wealth. We travel through these places marked by time and we apprehend the heritage from a new angle.
05
Discover local flavors
Endowed with a rich and varied terroir, the destination is full of specialities. From the vines of the hillsides of the Gironde to the oysters refined in the clear of the Seudre, we plan gourmet stops to taste the local products. A real encounter between land and sea.
