The Ile de Ré:

Enjoy an iodine-filled getaway as you stroll between salt marshes and vineyards, then head for the unmissable port of Saint-Martin-de-Ré or the typical village of Ars-en-Ré. Stroll through the flower-filled lanes, sample a dozen oysters overlooking the sea, then spread out your towel on one of the long sandy beaches. Here, everything exudes softness and discreet charm.
