A quick stop near Fort Boyard, the journey mainly serves as transport to Île d'Aix. An automatic check-in is triggered, a definite tourist trap. I don't recommend it.

Excellent trip! I was with a stroller and had no problems at all; they even helped me get it on and off.
Despite terrible seasickness, I have truly wonderful memories of it, both with my children and me. Thank you to the team who took such good care of me after my rather unpleasant seasickness.
