Created based on 184,483 responses and a hailed by 768 municipalities, a questionnaire organised by the FUB (Federation of Bicycle Users) placed La Rochelle at the top of the list of cyclist-friendly cities with between 50,000 and 100,000 inhabitants.
- Marais de Tasdon
Located two kilometres as the crow flies from our hotel in La Rochelle, the Marais de Tasdon acts as the main biodiversity hub in the La Rochelle area. It is to preserve these 124 hectares of prairie, woodland, marshland, ponds and other humid zones that a rehabilitation project started here.
- Pleasure port
With more than 5,000 docking places, La Rochelle’s pleasure port is one of the largest in France and the largest on the Atlantic coast.

More than just a fishing port, the Chef Baie-La Rochelle port area is a real multiservice hub, entirely equipped to meet the requirements of professionals in the seafood sector.
