Area information:

Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie is located in the Vendée department, on the Atlantic coast which is one of the most economically dynamic departments in France.

The Vendée coast extends over 160 kms of golden sandy beaches. Coupled with an exceptionally mild climate, these attract large numbers of tourists, both local and foreign. Other well-known and popular resorts include Les Sables-d'Olonne, La Tranche-sur-Mer and Saint-Jean-de-Monts. These resorts are well loved and visited year on year by French and international tourists. The region boasts numerous "blue flag” beaches, emphasising the natural beauty of the area.
The climate in the Vendée is influenced by the Atlantic Ocean. The proximity of the ocean offers relief from both summer humidity and hard winters. Average annual sunshine levels are amongst the highest in France: 2,134 hours.

Moving inland, from the lacework coastline, some of the many attractions include the Marais Poitevin (an area famed for wildlife), the forested area around the village of Mervent and the rolling countryside of the Bocage. Visit to the “Puy du Fou Park” are favorable among visitors to rediscover mythical and historical worlds and centuries in which gladiators and beasts were the masters.


Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie is one of the most attractive towns in the Vendee and is a perfect coastal destination. It benefits from kilometres of fine sand beaches, bordered with protected dunes.

Various cultural activities like jazz festivals and theatre performances are commonplace in the area. Not to mentioned the vast array of water sports and of course the well known golf courses.
