Although the roads around the village if Neuil-sur-mer are atrocious for the unsuspecting traveller, we eventually got to the sea last night and camped in a car park next to two small but popular fish restaurants. The plan had been to stop in La Rochelle (which wasn't quite as beachy as I had expected) but found ourselves heading through an industrial estate instead.
There had been a supermarket car-park on the edge of La Rochelle full with other, bigger, campervans but too late - we drove by.
All things said, and a short stroll around the little fishing harbour this morning confirmed a quiet work orientated place. The Ile de Re over the bay is obviously the place for tourists.
