Departure from Le Château-d'Oléron (Charente-Maritime)
Walk around the village of Ors, its oyster channel and Grésillon.
Ors was the arrival and departure point for tourists during the heyday of the ferry (1945–1966) until the viaduct was built (1966). Traffic jams are guaranteed in the narrow, winding streets!
Stunning views of the Oléron viaduct and the old Ors jetty, which linked the mainland to the port of Chapus in Bourcefranc.
