Pré Vincent Beach

Highlight • Beach

Facing south, Pré-Vincent beach is cut by numerous groynes of wood or rocks. At low tide, the sea retreats several kilometers and gives way to the famous mud from the Bay of Bourgneuf. Near the town center of Moutiers en Retz, the beach is bordered by a promenade exclusively reserved for pedestrians. Pretty silted walk when I hiked it.

Water management is essential for life in the swamp, it is managed by the SAH. (Syndicate of the Southern Loire Hydraulic Development). 51 municipalities are affected by the regulation of these waters by the Marais Breton Vendée or Marô. There are still 3 main locks in Port la Roche and 2 in Fresne.
