Chatelaillon-Plage

Among the cities of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Châtelaillon-Plage stands out for its long sandy Atlantic beach and Belle Époque resort character. Set on France’s Bay of Biscay coast, south of La Rochelle, it faces the Pertuis d’Antioche and the maritime channels of Charente-Maritime. The town developed as a seaside resort after the railway arrived in the late 19th century, and its seafront still features villas from that era alongside a broad promenade. Beach activities, sailing and an annual kite-and-wind festival give the resort an active coastal identity.
