Description

For cyclists on La Vélodyssée, the emblematic cycle route along the Atlantic coast, the Balusot offers a unique opportunity to cross the Seudre and continue the adventure gently. This link allows you to avoid detours and take full advantage of the region's seascapes and charming ports. Between Marennes and La Tremblade: The oyster walk, a must on your itinerary!

Leaving from the port of Cayenne, reach the port of La Grève in La Tremblade, renowned for its many tastings of local produce.
