The coast of the Vendée stretches to over 160 km of mostly sandy beaches. Coupled with an exceptionally mild climate, these have long attracted large numbers of overseas and domestic tourists.
Some popular resorts include Les Sables D'Olonne, Saint Jean de Monts, and Noirmoutier.
Some beaches are "blue flagged" for cleanliness.                     
The Vendee boasts many churches and abbeys, museums, and - for nature lovers - there are thousands of marked footpaths, a signposted bicycle route running along the coastal mudflats, and marshes that attract unusual birds. Fishing is popular in the ocean or in the Vendée's rivers and lakes.

There are street markets every day in local towns during the summer months. 
This department also has some speciality products, including a distinctive brioche (now recognised by the  “label rouge” designation) and a raw cured ham(Jambon de Vendee) similar in flavour to bacon.
Wine is also produced in the area around the communes of Vix, Brem, Pissotte and Mareuil-sur-Lay and is marketed under the "Fiefs Vendéens" label. Quality of the production has improved markedly over recent years, and having already achieved the appellation V.D.Q.S (Vins Délimité de Qualité Superieure) the wines are on their way towards A.O.C status (Appellation d’Origine Controlée).
Although there are many restaurants in our area we offer a table d'hote service which is a nice  way  to spend a social evening, especially popular with young families who can relax in pleasant surroundings.

The region offers a wealth of sightseeing attractions such as chateaux, museums, vineyards, wine tasting tours, open-air markets, seaside resorts, botanical gardens, theme parks (Futuroscope in Poitiers, Le Puy de Fou), golf, Tennis, watersports etc
