Plage de la Mine, Sandy beach in Jard-sur-Mer, France.
The beach stretches along the Atlantic coast with golden sand bordered by natural dunes and vegetation typical of the Vendée region.
The beach name originates from its location near former mining activities that characterized the coastal development of Jard-sur-Mer during the 19th century.
Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices along the shore, contributing to the preservation of regional maritime customs and gastronomy.
The beach features a large free parking area, summer surveillance, showers, and a snack bar, with multiple access points through forest paths.
The eastern section contains a natural pool formed by rocks, which fills with seawater during high tide and creates a protected swimming area.
