Through fishermen's small harbours along fine sand beaches and dried up swamps, your bike ride leads you to Rochefort. Storks and herons fly away when you pass them. In Rochefort, a former royal shipyard, admire the Hermione, the three-master built with the methods of the 17th century. You take the last transporter bridge of France and continue to ride the Oléron Island. Savour a dish of Marennes oysters, your feet hanging in the water and enjoy your refreshing break. You discover the long fine sand beaches and fishermen's villages of Oléron Island before taking the boat to return to La Rochelle.
