La Flotte, the maritime jewel of the Ile de Ré
If walls could talk, the walls of the port of La Flotte would tell the story of centuries of adventure.
Once a trading port for wine, salt and cereals, La Flotte was already a strategic crossroads in the Middle Ages. Here, ships were loaded for Bordeaux, Brittany or England. We also hear of pirate attacks, religious wars and even Richelieu, who reinforced the island during the siege of La Rochelle.
Then came the fishermen, the coasters, the sardines... A life turned towards the sea, humble and strong.
Today, the port has become a haven of peace for yachtsmen. It has kept its soul, its stones, its shutters faded by the salt, and that little something timeless.
La Flotte is the story of a village that has elegantly weathered the ages.
A place where the past whispers at every tide.
You walk along it without thinking too much about it, and yet... this street bears the traces of an ancient and strategic past.
In the past, it wasn't just a simple passageway: it was a vital crossroads, where many different paths crossed, linking hamlets, salt marshes, farmland and the town of La Flotte.
It was a vital artery for salt carts, wine merchants, farmers, fishermen... An essential point of convergence for the island's economic activity.
Over time, the paths have changed, as have the customs, but the name has remained. A nod to the times when everything converged here.
Today, it's a quiet, almost anodyne street.
But every cobblestone murmurs the comings and goings of another time.
