Plage des Sablons, Sandy beach in Pornic, France

The Plage des Sablons stretches for 70 meters along the coastline, featuring orange sand and clear waters at the foot of rocky cliffs.

In 1880, Mr. Mary installed a statue of Notre-Dame de Lourdes after his dog saved him from a dangerous fall from the surrounding cliffs.

The beach sits near the coastal path known as sentier des douaniers, connecting the shore to the village center of Sainte-Marie-sur-Mer.

Free parking spaces, public restrooms, and seasonal refreshment kiosks serve visitors from April through September at this unsupervised swimming location.

The beach offers direct views toward Noirmoutier Island across the Bay of Bourgneuf, while maintaining its small cove character.
