Located between forest, beach and freshwater marshes, Saint-Jean-de-Monts is a flagship destination on the Vendée coast. It’s the ideal place to relax and recharge your batteries with family or friends. During your holiday at Yelloh! Village Les Sirènes, make the most of the different elements you’ll find in this urban yet natural environment!
This bustling and vibrant seaside resort is found halfway between the island of Noirmoutier to the north and Les Sables-d’Olonne to the south. Looking out to the Atlantic Ocean, it spans an exceptionally rich area:
Over and above all, Saint-Jean-de-Monts is a sporty destination with an equal number of walking trails and cycle paths, so set off on foot or on two wheels to discover the Vendée! The paths are 170 km long in all and can be accessed right from our campsite. You can even hire bicycles here!
You’ll also have the chance to try your hand (for the first time perhaps?) at numerous activities such as sand yachting, surfing, horse riding, climbing or even scrambling around a tree-top adventure course! There are some wonderful Nordic walking and trail running routes through the forest. The town also has one of the finest 18-hole golf courses in France, offering a stunning view over the ocean.
We can also recommend a walk from the beach up to the pier, along the seafront promenade. A lovely way to spend your time, which will take you 400 metres above sea level. Then continue your walk amidst the vegetation along the dune path.
As you’ll have gathered, when you stay in a mobile home at Saint-Jean-de-Monts, you’ll benefit from a dream environment. The ideal place to sit down on a terrace and savour the area’s many culinary specialities: oysters, the local doughnut-like treats, a dish of mogette beans… and you absolutely must taste the Préfou Vendéen, a scrumptious form of garlic bread! And wash it all down with one of the delicious local drinks!
You’ll find all of these great products on the markets here. The main market on Place Jean Yole is held every Wednesday and Saturday. In summer, you can also visit the Les Demoiselles summer market on Mondays and Thursdays.
Finally, for a lively holiday and some great memories, Saint-Jean-de-Monts hosts an array of events, shows, concerts and exhibitions! In fact, here “the horizon will be your only limit”, as the motto of the Pays de Saint-Jean-de-Monts area says!
This area is actually made up of 5 municipalities: the eponymous town of Saint-Jean-de-Monts, then Notre Dame-de-Monts, Fromentine and its lane of fishing huts, and Perrier and Soullans, with marshland scenery and outstanding views of the sunrise. Each of them is worth a visit.
So pack your suitcases and head straight off for Yelloh! Village Les Sirènes!
Saint-Jean de Monts and the surrounding area are a dream destination that will keep everyone happy, whatever their aspirations: relaxation, recreation, outings or discovery!
