    • Le Rayon Vert and its team await you facing the sea on the embankment of Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie. In summer and on sunny days you can enjoy our large terrace.

      We will be pleased to welcome you to delight your taste buds and give you a pleasant time.

      Specialists in fresh, local fish, we work with the fish market of Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie, Sables-d'Olonne, Noirmoutiers and fishing from the Isle of Yeu.

      The quality of our fish is essential to us. We favor line fishing and short supply chains. Our menu varies depending on these arrivals.

      On the menu we also offer burgers, pancakes and salads. Our chef works with local, fresh and seasonal products.

      It is the ideal setting to relax at any time of the day. In the afternoon you can come and enjoy our crepes, ice creams and drinks with a panoramic view of the Grande Plage.

      The Rayon Vert team will be delighted to share a pleasant moment with you.
