The island's most symbolic monument, the Baleines lighthouse in Saint-Clément-des-Baleines.

It's the island's most symbolic monument! To reach it, you'll have to head west. The first tower was erected at the end of the 17th century to mark the reefs at the entrance to the channels, but its range was far too limited and it was not visible in foggy weather. It wasn't until the 19thcentury that a new building was erected. This time, the tower was substantial, 57 meters high and its light visible for 50 kilometers. 257 steps up the spiral staircase! You'll enjoy a magnificent panorama.

Magnifique
Magnifique phares franchement restaurés. Musée très accessible et éducatif qui a ravi les enfants. Un incoutournable de l'île de Ré

Vue magnifique
Site magnifique et sauvage, un musée sur place vous permettra de découvrir l'histoire de ce phare. Pique nique possible. Si vous le pouvez montez en haut du phare...

Endroit incontournable de l'île.
Magnifique vue sur l'océan depuis le haut, si on n'a pas peur de gravir les nombreuses marches.
A voir !

Vue imprenable
en week end avec mes enfants, nous avons eu l'occasion de faire le phare. Une vue splendide nous attendait tout en haut.

Très beau phare à visiter dès l'ouverture pour éviter la foule. En haut du phare, il y a un balcon qui fait le tour et qui permet de voir toute l'île.
Petite boutique sympa en sortant, ou on trouve le pire comme le meilleur. Très bon coin librairie avec des romans d'aventure de pirates, entre autres.
