Seaside Exploring

Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie

Under 20 minutes’ drive away from Siblu’s Le Bois Dormant and Le Bois Masson, the charming fishing village of Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie is the oldest port in Vendée and is famous for its sardine fishing. Why not visit La Perle des Dieux, a unique sardine canning factory which proudly produces vintage sardines and also has its own museum and art gallery. The town is also home to the Maison du Pecheur which recreates what a fisherman’s cottage in the 1920s would have looked like.

Ile de Yeu

It is also well worth getting a ferry over to the beautiful Ile de Yeu during your stay in the region.

Noirmouitier is also famous for its culinary specialities: tuck into oysters, shellfish, turbot and natural salt (harvested from the salt-water wetlands which cover a third of the island). Interestingly it is also considered to be home to some of the world’s best potatoes (the ‘Bonnotte’ variety).

Vendée Day Trips

Puy du Fou

Puy du Fou, one of France's best-loved and most unique theme parks, is within easy reach for a day trip from both Le Bois Dormant and Le Bois Masson. Something between traditional theme park, historical re-enactment and larger-than-life spectacle, walking through Puy du Fou is like living your own personal time-travel adventure. One minute you’re in the heart of a medieval city, the next you’re watching an army of Vikings preparing for a raid. Don’t miss the evening spectacles set against the stunning background of the site’s chateau and lake which features fireworks, music, water displays and hundreds of actors.

Futuroscope

Don’t fancy a trip to the past? What about the future? Futuroscope is another extraordinary local theme park with a twist. Get a glimpse of the future of science and technology at the many Imax cinemas and enjoy a unique selection of rides and immersive experiences. With the chance to fly over the 5 continents, experience the life of an astronaut on a mission in space, speed through the canyons of Mars or dance with robots, Futuroscope offers an adrenaline rush like no other.

Nantes

The bustling city of Nantes, set on the banks of the Loire river, provides a great day out for kids and parents alike. Take a guided tour around the castle, which was once home to the Dukes of Brittany, or pop next door to the Museum of Nantes where you can find out more about the historical and maritime past of the city. Don't miss catching a glimpse of Nantes' famous 12 metre high mechanical elephant which patrols the areas around the former shipyards (book in advance to climb aboard and join the tour). Meanwhile kids love letting off steam at the botanical garden with its quirky statues and topiaries).
