our Top 6
01
Hike on foot
While walking, we take the time to observe what surrounds us: the fauna, the flora. Our senses are awakened. The smells intoxicate us: the iodized air of the seaside and the marshes, the woody scent of the pines in the forest. We reconnect with ourselves and with nature.
02
Trace the route by bike
To go to beach, go to the market, visit the surroundings, we choose the bike! At your own pace, it's a good way to do sports in the great outdoors. The many circuits invite us to discover the cultural, natural and historical heritage.
03
Escape on the water in a kayak
After a few strokes of the paddle, we move away from the hustle and bustle of the coast. New points of view are offered to us to contemplate the landscapes of the coast. Beginner, we opt for a gentle ride on the Seudre. The more athletic among us will choose a trip to the sea.
04
Take a horseback ride
No need to be an experienced rider to try the experience. We take the marked paths in the countryside, on the beach or in the forest. At the walk, at the trot, the links are woven with the animal. Nose to the wind, we let go. You feel a sense of freedom from the elements.
05
Test your balance on a paddle
When there is little wind, we go to the stand-up paddle to slide on calm waters. We take advantage of the current to let ourselves be carried away. Sitting, then standing, we find the balance to navigate in a magical setting. We find ourselves in harmony with nature and we forget the stress of everyday life.
06
Surfing against the waves
Surfing allows you to surpass yourself physically in contact with nature. It is a state of mind where patience and observation are essential. For extreme sensations, direction the Wild Coast and its powerful waves. After a good session, you feel completely relaxed!
