Overview

Kitesurf

Île d'Oléron - Boyardville is a kitesurf spot on the east coast of the Île d'Oléron (Charente-Maritime), near the famous Fort Boyard. This sheltered east-facing beach in the Pertuis d'Antioche catches North, North-East, East and South-East winds — the directions that blow onshore from the channel between Oléron and the mainland.

Tidal spot with flat water. Boyardville is a charming village with a marina. The Fort Boyard sandbank area nearby creates interesting riding zones at certain tidal stages. Oyster farming zones on this coast — respect stakes and boat lanes.
