Nestled like a pearl off the Atlantic coast, the island of Noirmoutier invariably attracts motorhome owners at All Saints' Day. The calm of the low season, the gentle ocean and the landscapes of dunes, salt marshes and pine forests offer a welcome respite after a busy summer. You can cycle along the coastline, enjoy the salt marshes that are still active, watch migratory birds, and sample local produce at the markets that are still open in autumn.
It's impossible to miss Mont-Saint-Michel, this architectural and spiritual wonder, listed as a World Heritage Site.

With the Pack'Privilèges, you can reserve your spot well in advance, so you don't have to worry about logistics.
