Exploring the Ile de Ré by Motorhome
The bridge connecting the Ile de Ré to the mainland allows pedestrians, cyclists, and motorized vehicles to easily reach "Ré la Blanche" from La Rochelle or other towns in Charente-Maritime. This convenience is a real advantage for motorhome travelers looking to explore the island’s charming villages and coastline while enjoying the freedom of a motorhome trip. Touring the Ile de Ré by motorhome has many other benefits. The island spans less than 25 km in length and features several areas suitable for motorhomes. Visitors can stay at a dedicated motorhome area or at a premium campsite like Sea Green Les Grenettes, which offers motorhome pitches with electrical access and wastewater disposal systems. The latter option is particularly beneficial for families, as the rates include free access to a water park with a heated pool and other luxury outdoor facilities near the seaside.
