Île de Ré is one of the most coveted jewels of the French Atlantic coast — a 30 km strip of land with whitewashed villages, green shutters, hollyhock-lined lanes and hand-harvested salt marshes. Saint-Martin-de-Ré's Vauban citadel is UNESCO-listed. The Baleines lighthouse (257 steps) offers sweeping views. Fort Boyard, visible from the southern coast, is a global TV icon. The 2.9 km toll bridge (opened 1988) links the island to La Rochelle, whose Old Port with three medieval towers, aquarium and vibrant waterfront are just 15 minutes away.
Route
Route Île de Ré → La Rochelle
Your driver picks you up anywhere on Île de Ré — Saint-Martin, La Flotte, Ars-en-Ré or any village. The bridge crossing offers views of Fort Boyard on clear days. The toll operates continent-to-island only, so island-to-continent is free. After the bridge, the D735 reaches La Rochelle quickly. Allow 15 min from Saint-Martin, add 15-20 min from western villages. Saturday summer traffic on the bridge can cause delays.
Main route: Pont de l'Île de Ré / D735 — ~16,50 € (pont, été, retour continent)
