What you can expect

  • Departing from the typical village of Boyardville on the island of Oléron, which was established in the early 19th century to house workers and their families, embark on a 1-hour narrated boat cruise.

    After 15 minutes of sailing, we arrive near the famous fort. The crew will then be eager to share their passion for the coastline of the Pertuis Charentais with you. The boat cruise continues to Pointe Sainte Catherine, south of Île d'Aix, before a return journey of about 20 minutes to our harbor of departure.

    Aboard ARTEMIS, a new cruise boat (commissioned in 2026) that is comfortable and incredibly quiet, you will enjoy a cruise tour that will delight both young and old and is sure to be one of the highlights of your stay on the luminous island.

    Bonus: Our furry friends are welcome to join us free of charge.
