Paseo rápido en bici de La Flotte a La Couarde-sur-Mer

This pleasant ride takes you from the charming harbor village of La Flotte to the laid-back beach town La Couarde-sur-Mer, both gems on the Île de Ré. You'll cover a little over 11 km, mostly on comfortable cycleways and quiet roads—perfect for a leisurely outing.

La Flotte is known for its beautiful medieval market and scenic seafront, so make sure to take in the view before you set off. The route is mostly flat, with just a few gentle rises, making it accessible for most cyclists. As you pedal westward, you'll be treated to classic island scenery: salt marshes, vineyards, and the occasional glimpse of the ocean.

The path is mostly asphalt, but there are a few short patches of gravel to keep things interesting. La Couarde-sur-Mer, your destination, boasts some of the prettiest sandy beaches on the island and inviting cafés for a post-ride treat. It’s a relaxed journey with plenty of opportunities to stop and soak in the unique Rétais vibe!
