A short break in France - staying at Camping Le Littoral in the Vendee

[@colinwellman9480]

Jard sur Mer is within 25km of where we live and we often cycle that way. Le Littoral was where we first stayed in our early days of holidaying in France, 30 years back. It looks very different now! Nice easy flat cycling as long as the wind isn't blowing too hard.

Yes, we always love to spend time in the Vendée, you are very fortunate 👍

Thanks for the helpful video!

[@jeffjsmith]

Will you be staying there anytime do you think?

[@paulhendrick7640]

thanks for the video, how long did it take to cycle to the supermarket please?

[@jeffjsmith]

Hi - it takes about 20 to 30 minutes to cycle from Le Littoral to the Super U in Talmont. A nice ride, almost all on cycle paths. Are you going there? Jeff

@@jeffjsmith hi thanks for the reply, yeah we're going there for the first two weeks july. Me my wife and 2 teenagers. Looks like a great place for cycling.

@@paulhendrick7640 I'm sure that you will have a great time. There are a lot of bike routes 'Vendee a Velo" which go up and down the coast and have some superb coastal views. The marshlands are also interesting to visit. The Littoral is itself an excellent campsite. Are you taking your own bikes or hiring?

@@jeffjsmith we'll have our own bikes. is jard sur mer worth a visit? is there much to do there?

[@jeffjsmith]

@@paulhendrick7640 Jard is quite a small place - but quite interesting. Les Sables is much bigger with a lot of things to do - visits, things to do on boats etc, and it has a good beach - with surfing when the weather is right for that. Talmont itself has a castle to visit. There is a lot of interesting places around in the area.
