Poitou-Charentes: realm of growing children and full-grown adults!

 

Bounded on the west by the Atlantic Ocean, Poitou-Charentes is characterized by landscapes composed of plains, enclosures and marshlands. The seacoast is fringed with dunes, long sandy beaches and oyster beds. The same landscapes may be found on the islands, which are small fragments of the continent cast adrift.

Numerous play areas are in store for the children … to the heartfelt delight of their parents.

So many things to do in this enticing and inviting region: The experience of bracing sensations if you spend a full day at the Futuroscope; you may also pay a visit to the Hermione worksite or La Fayette’s frigate, observe the Bougon tumulus, take a stroll in the conches of the Poitou marshland, discover the locales where legendary stories originally took shape, stroke the celebrated Poitou donkeys, contemplate animals from all continents at the La Palmyre zoo, monkeys in their valley, snakes at la Trimouille…

As you may have noted, there is no lack whatsoever of things to do and enjoy!
