If you're in the mood for a beautiful stroll along the sea, this is the tour for you. What's more, this route will take you out of the city to La Rochelle's farthest southern tip, where you'd never think to go when visiting La Rochelle. This walk takes you along the Vieux Port channel, then the Port des Minimes, Europe's largest marina! You'll then arrive at Plage des Minimes, the largest beach in La Rochelle, before reaching Pointe des Minimes, from where you can enjoy a 360° view of the sea. A marvellous vantage point with Fort Boyard, the islands of Oléron and Aix and the famous Phare du Bout du Monde in the background!

This tour is a much-appreciated "best seller". It allows you to discover the vast Rochelais coastline, which stretches on both sides of the Vieux Port to the west and south!

The walk begins in the western part of La Rochelle, with the Old Port and its emblematic towers, the city walls, and then the Plage de la Concurrence, reached by passing behind the city walls and a charming little wooden bridge spanning the old moat. From the Plage de la Concurrence, the walk continues along a promenade overlooking the sea, leading to the Parc d'Orbigny. Enjoy the splendid view of the Vieux Port channel...

This is the enchanting setting for the first part of the tour.

Then head for the south of La Rochelle, passing through the Chaîne district and the Vieux Port to appreciate the atmosphere and towers once again, and on to the Gabut, an old wooden fishermen's quarter located between the 2 shores of La Rochelle.
You'll then have the chance to sail along the Vieux Port channel, where you'll find a splendid spot with a breathtaking view of the towers and the entrance to the Vieux Port.

The tour continues along the Port des Minimes, Europe's largest marina, before reaching the Pointe des Minimes, its sandy beach and its panoramic view of the Phare du Bout du Monde lighthouse, the islands of Aix and Oléron and Fort Boyard, which stands proudly between the two... a change of scenery guaranteed!

This unique experience is enhanced by the thrill of the Segway gyro-pod, a gentle, fun way of getting around that lets you take full advantage of the exceptional panoramas and varied landscapes on offer on this tour.

An unforgettable experience...a MUST!
