L’Ile d’Yeu

The main island is located about twenty kilometers from the continent. It can be reached by boat at the pier located in Fromentine. The island has two different sides:

• the east coast is sandy, green, similar to what you see on the Vendée coast; this is also the side with the capital Port-Joinville.
• the western coast, is a “côte sauvage” containing granite rock with coves and cliffs. The highest point is located between “le Vieux Château” and the “Cap des Degrés”; it is 31 meter high.
