    • Set sail for adventure with Le Méphisto IV in Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie

      Enjoy an authentic maritime experience departing from the fishing port of Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie. By embarking on the Méphisto IV, you are not just boarding a boat, you are setting off to discover the living heritage of the Vendée.


      A journey between contemplation and emotion

      Led by professional and passionate fishermen, enjoy a friendly atmosphere and discover the open sea in a new way. Whether you're looking for tranquility or adventure, our outings can be tailored to suit all your desires.

      • Take a deep breath of fresh air along the Vendée Corniche. Admire the treasures of the coastline from the ocean, from the famous Devil's Hole to the majestic rock formations of the Five Pineaux.
      • A reassuring and unforgettable adventure that welcomes young and old, from April to mid-October.


      Looking for thrills? Try sea fishing!

      For those who enjoy sharing, fishing trips are a highlight. Whether alone, with friends, or family, come and try your luck at fishing in the fish-filled waters off St. Gilles.

      Did you know? The team provides all the equipment (rods and bait). Whether you are a beginner or experienced, you will learn traditional techniques for catching sea bass, sea bream, mackerel, pollack or whiting.


      Practical aspects

      • Each participant has the pleasure of bringing back their catches to extend the experience at the table!
      • Don't forget to bring a bag to carry your sea loot.

      Between land and sea, the Mephisto IV transforms your outings into unforgettable memories, carried by the sea spray and the passion of the local guides. Ready to cast off?
