La Courtine, Seafood restaurant in Le Château-d'Oléron, France.
La Courtine is a seafood restaurant at the oyster port in Le Château-d'Oléron with an indoor dining room and covered terrace. It overlooks the harbor and the working oyster farms that surround the location.
The venue began as a former oyster cabin and was transformed into a modern restaurant under the leadership of Ludovic Lot and his father Rémi. This evolution reflects how the port has shifted from a working production site to a place for dining experiences.
The name reflects its location at the oyster port, where you can watch local producers at work throughout the day. The dining space embodies the deep connection between this place and the maritime traditions that shape daily life here.
The restaurant is right at the port and easily walkable, with parking nearby for those arriving by car. Hours are limited, so it is best to check ahead which days work for your visit.
Next door is L'Atelier, an oyster bar where visitors can taste and buy fresh oysters directly at the port. This partnership creates a complete experience of local oyster culture in one visit.
