Plage de la Gautrelle, Sand beach in Saint-Georges-d'Oléron, France.
The beach extends along the northeastern coast of Oleron Island, featuring fine sand shores and clear views of Fort Boyard in the distance.
The beach borders the Saumonards forest, which served as a strategic defense point for monitoring maritime activities during the 18th century.
Local residents maintain traditional fishing practices during low tide, collecting shellfish and crustaceans according to regional customs.
The beach provides supervised swimming areas from July to August between 11:00 AM and 7:00 PM, with designated zones marked by red and yellow flags.
