La Messaline The pleasure of a boat trip or sea fishing in Les Sables-d'Olonne

La Messaline: experience unique moments off the coast of Les Sables-d'Olonne

In the heart of the port of Les Sables-d'Olonne, moored opposite the legendary Quai Guiné, La Messaline is no ordinary pleasure boat. This traditional motorboat, proudly built in Paimpol, has retained its seafaring spirit to offer visitors to the Vendée region a truly human and authentic maritime experience. Here, hospitality is a family affair: they welcome you with a smile and the passion of those who love their work and their coastline.

An immersion into the heart of Les Sables-d'Olonne's heritage

Embarking on La Messaline is like taking a relaxing break to admire the Côte de Lumière (Coast of Light). The boat's distinctive silhouette invites you to unwind. As you leave the channel, admire La Chaume, the fishermen's quarter with its colorful facades that seem to watch over the harbor entrance. Between the sentinel lighthouses and the wild beaches, the narrated tour reveals the secrets of a land intimately linked to the ocean.

The spacious, 360° open deck allows everyone to move around freely and capture the perfect moment. Whether you're at the bow breathing in the sea spray or comfortably seated listening to the crew's stories, a friendly atmosphere prevails. It's the ideal destination for families seeking authentic memories.

The sea in all its facets

The Messaline embodies the maritime versatility so characteristic of the Vendée spirit. While contemplation is at the heart of these excursions, the ship is also a privileged witness to major nautical events, such as the start of the Vendée Globe, offering passengers a prime spot at the heart of the legend.

Looking for a more dynamic experience? For those who wish to move from contemplation to action, the crew offers outings dedicated to sea fishing to tease the fish in an atmosphere of genuine camaraderie.

As you will have understood, boarding La Messaline means choosing a voyage that has meaning, carried by sailors who have their hearts in the right place.
