Dolus-d'Oleron

Dolus-d'Oléron is best known on Île d'Oléron for Port des Salines, a heritage site preserving the island's salt-making tradition. In the Charente-Maritime department of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, the commune extends between salt marshes and the Atlantic Ocean. Its western coast includes the sandy beaches of Vert-Bois and La Rémigeasse, while inland lanes cross low-lying wetlands shaped by centuries of salt work. Port des Salines interprets how salt was produced in these marshes, adding context to a landscape often overlooked by beachgoers. Dolus-d'Oléron also provides a convenient base for exploring the long, narrow island, linked to mainland France by the Île d'Oléron bridge.
