Sail Yacht in Les Sables d'Olonne

The first yachting harbour in Vendée, as well as one of the most important commercial ports on the Atlantic coast, Les Sables d'Olonne is home to several nautical events every year, including the prestigious Vendée Globe race. Once famed for its salt, now popular for its rich maritime heritage, Les Sables d'Olonne is a lively resort and has plenty to offer in its surrounding areas, making it ideal for those who don't want to just sit on a beach all day.
