Le Perrier

Tourism, holidays & weekends guide in the Vendée

Charming town in Vendée, in Pays de la Loire, Le Perrier takes place about fifty kilometers from La Roche-sur-Yon, in the heart of the district of Les Sables d'Olonne. It is located not far from Saint-Jean-de-Monts, Beauvoir-sur-Mer and Challans.

Set mostly in a classified Natura 2000 area, the town of Perrier has always been an exceptional natural heritage that still seduces visitors passing today. Of ancient origin, it is shown especially during the wars of Vendee, in the late eighteenth century or by the passage of Louis XIII in the seventeenth.

Looking to the eco-tourism, Le Perrier offers a good range of ecological infrastructures and an excellent docking point for discovering the Marais Breton Vendéen.
