Road trip idea for an unforgettable stay for two

The weather is fine, we've got the car back and we want to make the most of the outdoors? Then it is time to take the road to start the romantic road trip in Brittany. We join then Vannes to leave the car on a protected carpark, then we take the boat to go to stroll in the Gulf of Morbihan. The Ile aux Moines and the Ile d'Arz are small terrestrial paradises for hiking, admiring the Breton architecture and stopping over on beautiful stretches of sand.

The sea air in the Vendée

Once you've enjoyed this soothing area for walking, cycling and swimming, head for the Vendée and the island of Noirmoutier. After crossing the Gois Passage, we reach L'Herbaudière to have a drink in front of the marina. A few kilometres away, the centre of the town of Noirmoutier is full of fine gourmet addresses to enjoy fish and seafood. In the afternoons, you can choose to cycle through the salt marshes, or go to the elegant Plage des Dames with its wooden cabins to enjoy the sun and the sea.

River trip in a green environment in the Marais Poitevin

Then head for the Charente-Maritime for a romantic experience: a boat trip through the Marais Poitevin, the Green Venice. What a pleasure to travel along the waterways, and to be guided by a guide-boatmaker out of sight. Travelling through the Marais Poitevin means slowing down and contemplating a place with incredible flora and fauna. Some walks even include the tasting of local products. This is the perfect time to connect with nature, and forget about any source of stress.

Between seascapes and gastronomy in the Bay of Arcachon

The road trip then takes travellers to Arcachon, for the pleasure of strolling through its mythical districts such as the Ville d'Hiver district, with its magnificent 19th century villas. We then stop to eat some oysters accompanied by a glass of white wine facing the Bay of Arcachon, a place conducive to relaxation and contemplation. The stay also includes a trip to the Dune du Pilat, to take a photo for two in front of a beautiful marine panorama, composed of the ocean and the Banc d'Arguin.

The territory indeed combines several experiences within one and the same region. You can hike through mountainous landscapes before relaxing your muscles on the Grande Plage in Biarritz.
