For a quiet spot, even at the height of the season head to Les Granges. Situated to the north of Sauveterre, at the northernmost point of the Forest d’Olonne and on the other side of the Havre de la Gachere channel, it also boasts a long stretch of sand.
Expect to see beach fishermen as well as surfers although only those in the know tend to come here. Car parking is easy to come by and dogs on a lead are permitted.
