What to do in Château-d’Olonne, Vendée?
Visit the Saint-Jean d’Orbestier Abbey : This Benedictine abbey was built during the Middle Ages nearly a millennium ago. In 1107, the Duke of Aquitaine authorized the monks to establish a monument in honor of John the Baptist and Saint Mary. Burned and looted several times, it was purchased by the commune of Château-d’Olonne and restored starting in 1989.
Explore the coastline : Even with last-minute camping reservations on the Atlantic coast, you can enjoy Château-d’Olonne’s diverse shoreline, which is divided into two distinct areas:

The latter includes several remarkable natural sites such as the Puits de l’Enfer, a chasm in the rock where the ocean surges at high tide. A promenade suitable for children, the elderly, and people with reduced mobility has been created around the Baie de Cayola. Along the seafront, you may also spot old bunkers that were part of the Atlantic Wall.
