The island of Noirmoutier is one of the jewels of the Vendée. There are two ways to get there: the bridge or the gois. We advise you to take this mythical route, a ford that can only be crossed at low tide, to capture all the magic of the crossing. An authentic and unspoilt island, which groups together four villages with different personalities, offering a contrast between the great natural spaces offered by the splendour of the salt marshes criss-crossing the plain, the colourful harbours and the architecture oscillating between the low houses with white walls and blue shutters, and the sumptuous stone residences of the Bois de la Chaize. Mimosa Island, as it is called, is bordered by numerous sandy beaches, including the famous Ladies' Beach, at the end of the Bois de la Chaize, which was the setting for the film Les Vacances du Petit Nicolas, released in July 2014. Enjoy water sports, between boating and kitesurfing for the most daring, taste the gourmet products offered by the island of Noirmoutier: salt, potatoes, fish (including turbot) and shellfish, biscuits, ....... and find all these good products on the good tables of Noirmoutier, starting with the most recognized of them: La Marine, located opposite the port of l'Herbaudière, the two-star restaurant of Céline and Alexandre Couillon
