It enables nature lovers to see a wealth of biodiversity and thousands of migratory birds. Trips to lovely villages, such as Saint Martin de Ré and Ars en Ré, add a picturesque touch when exploring the island.
The beaches are also a major attraction of the island dubbed “Ré la Blanche”, owing to the traditional cottages having whitewashed façades with green or blue shutters.
