Saint-Jean Beach Side

The beaches of Saint-Jean-de-Monts

With its eight kilometers of golden sand bordered by the ocean, Saint-Jean-de-Monts reveals one of the most beautiful beaches on the Vendée coast.

Here, space is king: vast expanses ideal for basking in the sun, playing in the waves, or simply strolling with your feet in the water. Family-friendly and safe, the beaches offer pleasant swimming with their gentle slopes and clear waters.

From morning onwards, the comings and goings of shore fishermen punctuate the shore, while in the evening, sunsets set the horizon ablaze. An enchanting setting, lulled by the gentle melody of the waves.

Don't miss: Demoiselles Beach or Davière Beach!

The seaside atmosphere

It's impossible to talk about the waterfront without mentioning the iconic jetty. Majestically jutting out into the Atlantic, this 400-meter jetty offers a unique vantage point, ideal for admiring the endless ocean or trying your hand at fishing.

After your stroll, settle in comfortably at a beach bar, cocktail in hand, to enjoy the relaxed atmosphere.

In the evening, why not extend the experience with a stop at the casino? Facing the ocean, between slot machines and gaming tables, let yourself be carried away by the excitement and charm of Vendée nights.
