      A bit of history and culture

      Considered the heart of the island, Saint-Pierre-d'Oléron is often nicknamed its “ capital ”. Its maritime history and the Saint-Pierre church with its bell tower are the main witnesses to this.

      The city is home to many buildings steeped in history such as:

      • The Maison des Aïeules where the writer Pierre Loti, born in Rochefort, lived.
      • The Oléron Island Museum offers an immersion in the history and culture of the island with varied exhibitions.


      Nature and activities: a homogeneous mix

      Saint-Pierre-d'Oléron is lined with fine sandy beaches. The Cotinière beach is the best known and most popular in summer. You can swim there or practice water sports.

      The port of La Cotinière is a must-see for watching the fishing boats returning from the Atlantic Ocean or for tasting freshly caught seafood.

      You will also find all their catches on local market stalls, alongside local produce.
