Plage De La Gauvinière

Plage De La Gauvinière is a sand beach situated along the Atlantic coast in La Madrague. The shoreline stretches across a wide expanse of sand facing the open ocean.

The beach has long served as a gathering place for fishing communities along the Loire coast. Its natural shoreline has remained largely unchanged through generations, shaping the character of the region.

Local residents gather at the beach throughout the year for traditional fishing activities and community celebrations that highlight the maritime heritage of the area.

The beach offers changing facilities, showers, and restrooms located nearby for visitors. Parking areas in the surrounding neighborhood provide convenient spots for cars during warmer months.

At low tide, natural pools form within the rocky areas, allowing swimmers to cool off without depending on ocean conditions. These sheltered water basins create a distinct quality to this shoreline.
