To the south of La Rochelle, Oléron Island is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Charente-Maritime, with its salt marshes and sandy beaches.

These 2 must-see sites in the region are just a few minutes' sail from Boyardville, making it easy to visit them from Oléron Island, whatever your age, physical condition, etc. All you have to do is choose the excursion with the right boat!
The Croisières Oléronaises team has 2 different types of boats to take you on a cruise to Fort Boyard and Île d'Aix: a 4.60 m wide and 18.23 m long boat that can take everyone on board, and a speedboat, a fast 12-seater boat with more sensational sailing conditions. The larger boat can take you on a tour of Fort Boyard or an excursion that also includes a stopover on Île d'Aix, while the speedboat is only used for the tour around Fort Boyard and Île d'Aix, without a stopover.
