What a town! Sand beach, pebble beach, fishing, rugged coastal line and coves… plus extraordinary wind (yes, surf is possible and no crocs / sharks). Probably not known outside of France, but it is a pretty popular summer vacation town near Pornic, Loire-Atlantique.

Summer coastline

In winter it was so dead; like walking dead amount of human (check my winter post). It was hard to imagine this place being so lively!

Visit the market place with me. The above video is under 2min. Watch to discover my favourite French treat 😉coast-préfailles-france-.JPGThe full coastal walk is 5km. Mega windy… as demo by my hair. It felt a lot longer than 5km because of the serious resistance. The weather changed like 3-4 times a day as well. Rainproof and windproof jacket is a must.

During low tides, one can walk through the “gate”. Refer to the featured photo.

If you still want to see more of the coastline, watch the below video 😉 It’s under 3min.

I didn’t see much hotels around the area. Looks like a bunch of summer homes to me. Better chance with Airbnb for finding accommodation.

 

Where was I?

Préfailles, Loire-Atlantique

How to get there?

Driving. There’s no train heading this way. Closest train station is Pornic.

Pointe St Gildas. Amazing blue sky and this horrid gray sky all happened in the same day… within 3 hours.

  1. I believe what you typed made a ton of sense. However, what about this?

    what if you composed a catchier post title? I ain’t saying your content is not
    solid, but suppose you added a title that makes people want more?

    I mean Summer in Préfailles, France – Local Girl Foreign Land is a little
    boring. You should glance at Yahoo’s front page and note how they write news headlines
    to get people to open the links. You might add a video or a related pic or two to get readers interested about everything’ve written. Just my opinion, it might bring your website a little bit more interesting.

  3. Hello there! This post could not be written much better!
    Going through this post reminds me of my previous roommate!
    He constantly kept talking about this. I most certainly
    will send this post to him. Pretty sure he’ll have a good read.
    Thanks for sharing!

  4. I believe what you said was very logical. But, consider this, what if you
    were to create a killer headline? I ain’t suggesting your content isn’t good, however
    suppose you added a title to possibly get folk’s attention? I mean Summer
    in Préfailles, France – Local Girl Foreign Land is kinda plain.
    You should glance at Yahoo’s home page and see how they
    create article headlines to get people to open the links.
    You might add a video or a related picture or two to get people excited
    about everything’ve written. In my opinion, it might bring your posts a
    little livelier.
