Always a popular destination with visitors and it's been a while since we visited the island which protects our La Tranche beaches from the full force of the Atlantic Ocean.
We took a short detour to show off our favourite feathered visitors in Saint-Denis-du-Payré. Apparently quite a few storks stay throughout the year these days. |
The gang arriving at Saint-Martin-de-Ré... |
...and this is what they were all looking at: the approach to the harbour. (La Tranche can't be seen but is on the horizon, just over the water!) |
Saint Martin has a real Mediterranean feel to it |
Lunch at La Sarrasine, our favourite crêperie... |
...with the obligatory apéritif, Cointreau fizz, a new one on me! |
