From Amoria Hotel, ... just follow the bay to change the mood.
Just a few minutes away, Le Pouliguen reveals a more varied coastline. On one side, calm beaches perfect for a gentle swim. On the other, a more rugged coast, dotted with rocks, coves, and ocean-facing paths.
That's what makes it so interesting: a natural extension of La Baule, but with a different personality. More varied, sometimes wilder, always accessible.
