    • On the island of Noirmoutier to the north of the Vendée coast, there are several towns, including L'Epine. You will discover 4 beautiful beaches on 3km of coastline, which reveals a rocky foreshore at low tide. Commune conducive to the activity of salt workers, its salt marshes are as curious to see as they are beautiful in this wild landscape of the island. Do not hesitate to ask, in season guided tours of the marshes are organized, to understand how the precious fleur de sel and the coarse salt of the island of Noirmoutier are harvested. It is an ideal place to discover by bike, go to the pretty port of Morin, it is a marina where to walk, eat an ice cream, enjoy the ballet of boats while admiring the horizon. Summer is a very festive place! Nature lovers will go for a walk in the Bois des Eloux, which adjoins the neighboring town of La Guérinière, there are pines and shrubs and even the place with the highest altitude on the island! 23m above sea level! As for tourist sites, there is the visit of mini-towns which will delight fans of models, it is the reproduction in miniature of towns and houses in France, on a scale of 1/8th. If you want to jump, slide and move, go to Océanile, a water amusement park. Slides, various pools, buoys... We're having a blast. L'Epine is a perfect town to spend a very good summer holiday in Vendée with family or friends, there are many seasonal accommodations.
