Port de Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie

Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie is a lively Vendée fishing and pleasure port sitting right in the heart of town, with the Île d'Yeu visible on the horizon. You drop anchor off a deep-water port of 1,100 berths that's sheltered and accessible at any state of the tide, with the river Vie winding through town and well-marked walking and cycling paths along its banks to explore.
