Things to do in La Rochelle, Nouvelle-Aquitaine: The Best Boat Tours & Water Sports

July 25, 2021 Renato Branum

Located on the Bay of Biscay, La Rochelle’s history mostly involved the sea; today it has a large pleasure-boat marina. Thus its heart is the picturesque "Vieux Port" ("Old Harbor"). The city retains a rich architectural heritage, and has an aquarium, attractive gardens and a natural-history museum. Book early for summer; mid-July in particular features Francofolies, a huge French music festival.

L'Oiseau Blanc

L'Oiseau blanc propose des navigations à bord d'un magnifique catamaran à voile de 13 mètres. A bord, vous participez aux manœuvres et découvrez le fonctionnement d'un voilier. Le bateau est très rapide, mais il navigue à plat, permettant à tous de se déplacer à bord en toute sécurité. En quelques heures vous pourrez découvrir les iles d'Aix, d'Oléron, Ré et l'ile Madame… en passant autour du célèbre Fort Boyard. A bord, je peux accueillir jusqu'a 14 personnes pour les groupes, et les navigations sont effectués à partir de 4 réservations... de Mars à Novembre. Bienvenue à bord.
