Indeed, the landscape changes completely. Bordered by the Bois de Trousse-Chemise pine forest, the <strong>Conche des Baleines<\/strong> is the most iconic stretch of coastline on the \u00cele de R\u00e9. It stretches from the Baleines lighthouse all the way to Les Portes-en-R\u00e9.<\/p><p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Facing the open sea, the white sand extends for hundreds of metres. At low tide, long walks with your feet in the water are pure bliss. Meanwhile, the waves make it a great surfing spot too. Furthermore, at sunset, the light over the dunes is simply spectacular. On a clear night, the sky above the dunes is breathtaking. In short, it&#8217;s one of those moments you simply don&#8217;t forget.<\/p><p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Moreover, the Baleines lighthouse nearby offers a stunning 360-degree view over the entire Atlantic coast. It is therefore well worth combining with a day out here.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7556a62c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7556a62c\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2dbd9108\" data-id=\"2dbd9108\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c19048a elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"5c19048a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-72ef4164 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"72ef4164\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-7cc6b973\" data-id=\"7cc6b973\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7649819a elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7649819a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"751\" height=\"246\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelparadise.fr\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/51E5BB9B-5969-4EC8-BC6A-CC30D6329106-1920x630.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2238\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-27ad3aad elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"27ad3aad\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Trousse-Chemise<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4ca61f5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4ca61f5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Further west lies the village of Les Portes-en-R\u00e9, one of the most beautiful villages in France.

Indeed, this corner of the island feels truly unspoiled.<\/p><p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">The plage de <strong>Trousse-Chemise<\/strong> is hidden behind the pine trees.

Therefore, they are the go-to destinations for <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-underline text-strikethrough-none\" draggable=\"false\" href=\"https:\/\/re-surf.com\/ou-surfer-sur-ile-de-re-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">surfing<\/a><\/span>, sailing and kitesurfing. Furthermore, their west-facing position generates a consistent and reliable swell. As a result, the waves here are both regular and ideal for all levels.<\/p><p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Moreover, local schools welcome beginners and experienced riders directly on the sand. In short, this stretch of coastline is a paradise for water sports enthusiasts.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column

It is therefore one of the best places for families with young children. Indeed, the water is shallow and calm, and the fine sand is perfect for little ones. Furthermore, direct access from the island&#8217;s cycle paths makes it a natural stop during a day out on bikes.<\/p><p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Just as pleasant, the <strong>plage des Prises<\/strong> offers a quieter setting. It is bordered by the Henri IV forest and its protected dunes. As a result, it is ideal for swimmers looking for space and tranquility.<\/p><p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Meanwhile, the <strong>plage de la Pergola<\/strong>, also in La Couarde, is a well-known surfing spot among locals. It is particularly popular when the swell picks up. Further along, the beach at Ars-en-R\u00e9 offers something truly unique. On one side lies the open sea. On the other, the stunning salt marshes stretch into the distance. <span class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">To find your villa in this area: <\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-underline text-strikethrough-none\" draggable=\"false\" href=\"https:\/\/www.travelparadise.fr\/blog\/trouver-une-location-luxe-la-couarde-ile-de-re\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Luxury rental in La Couarde-sur-Mer<\/a><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7337b81e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7337b81e\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4410cf46\" data-id=\"4410cf46\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6a9cde3b elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"6a9cde3b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3c64ef00 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3c64ef00\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The southern beaches \u2014 Heritage, fish and fine dining\n<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1ac4e783 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1ac4e783\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-23e892f0\" data-id=\"23e892f0\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1ebea9fd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1ebea9fd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">In the south, the beaches sit alongside some of the most historic villages in Charente-Maritime.

It sits right at the foot of the 17th-century Vauban ramparts, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In summer, charming white beach huts are available to rent. Moreover, a sailing school is just steps away.<\/p><p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">It is therefore the ideal place to combine swimming with a stroll through town.
