5 good reasons to love Marennes - Oléron in autumn
If there's ever a season to savor the little things in everyday life, to savor the simple pleasures, it's autumn! In Marennes-Oleron, it's one of the most beautiful seasons. Resourcing and cosy, here are 5 reasons to enjoy it.
1. Colorful sunsets
It's autumn when the colors are at their most beautiful in Marennes - Oléron! Brick oranges or lighter tones, a shimmering palette caresses the shores of Oléron. We never tire of admiring the reflections of the sunset on the Chassiron lighthouse or the ramparts of the Brouage citadel. A sight not to be missed!
2. Bird migration
A veritable haven of peace for many birds, until mid-November certain species of migratory birds return to Marennes-Oleron. It's the perfect opportunity to meet them, stroll around (discreetly) and admire their ballet. For a magical experience, let yourself be guided by experienced guides on nature outings organized by local associations.
3. Quiet beaches
The back-to-school rush can sometimes sting! Zen: take a deep breath, we've got the solution. Take a deep breath of the purifying iodine air and watch the waves roll over the sandy beaches of oléron. Far from the summer crowds, calm and serenity reign supreme during your beach outing. The ideal place to take a breather!
4. Forest walks
Leaves crunching under our feet, petrichor in our nostrils (the smell of vegetation after the rain), we run to admire the transition of colors on the vegetation... There's nothing like a walk in the forest in autumn to awaken all your senses. Head for the coniferous forests of Saumonards or Saint-Trojan-les-bains in Oléron to fill up on the good vibes!
5. Fishing sessions on foot
Who says you can't enjoy the ocean in autumn? Our foreshore has 1001 little treasures in store for you. Put on your boots, watch out for low tide and set off along the coast in search of the best spot to observe and collect shellfish and crustaceans. The little ones will marvel at the wonders and learn about this fragile ecosystem. All the more reason to breathe deeply this autumn!
