The Cordouan lighthouse
From Club Med La Palmyre Atlantique, allow thirty minutes to reach Royan, then set sail for an encounter with the Cordouan lighthouse. Perched on an offshore sandbank, this jewel of French maritime heritage, UNESCO-listed, reveals itself like a castle anchored in the Atlantic.
Stone staircases, royal chapel, sculpted frescoes, and breathtaking panoramas: each space whispers fragments of France's history. This singular escape in Charente-Maritime belongs to those rare experiences that linger in memory. Essential for those drawn to journeys blending culture, adventure, and maritime poetry.
