Royan's waters, in practice

The mouth of the Gironde, western Europe’s largest estuary, between the Meschers cliffs and long beaches. Wind-wise: prevailing westerlies and above all powerful estuary currents that set the timetable.

Departures, day-trip classics and season

Departures: the Royan marina, at the heart of the resort. The local classics: the UNESCO-listed Cordouan lighthouse, the Meschers coves and the Pointe de Grave across the water. High season: from June to September, timing outings around slack water.
