Boat Trip around Fort Boyard & the island of Aix from Fouras

Our boat trip around Fort Boyard and the island of Aix from Fouras promises to be an unforgettable experience. This 1-hour excursion combines two of Charente-Maritime's most emblematic sites, between nature and heritage. After embarking, we will pass the first fort, Fort Enet, accessible only at low tide. We will then head for the famous Fort Boyard. To not miss any of the history and secrets of the fortress's construction, commentaries will accompany the trip. We will then take a full tour of the nearby island of Aix, during which you can admire its unspoilt wild landscapes and idyllic beaches. It will then be time to return to Fouras.
