Noirmoutier-en-l'Île's waters at 5 knots

The Bourgneuf bay around a low salt-marsh island, tied to the mainland by the Gois tidal causeway: that is the setting. Weather-wise: ocean water tempered by the island, where sandbanks and tide shape the routes — with 6 hp you pick the calm morning sea, and the exact area is drawn by the operator at the briefing.

Booking at the right moment

The useful season runs from June to September, scented with mimosa and new potatoes. Six-hp fleets being the smallest in the harbour, aim for the morning slot.
