Les Sables-d'Olonne's waters, in practice

The wide Sables bay and its legendary channel, gateway of the Vendée Globe, open to the Atlantic. Wind-wise: an honest ocean regime: westerly swell to watch offshore, manageable breezes inshore in summer.

Departures, day-trip classics and season

Departures: Port Olona, home of the Vendée Globe, and the quay in the town centre. The local classics: the wild coast towards Le Payré and Bourgenay to the south, the Vendée corniche northward and the long Remblai beach. High season: from June to September, in the wake of offshore-racing legend.
