Description
About fifteen kilometers from Royan, Mornac-sur-Seudre is a charming village, emblematic of the Charente-Maritime department and on the tourist route of the "Villages de pierre et d’eau" (villages of stones and water). This label highlights a patrimony where two elements met: stone with remarkable buildings and water in all its forms: ocean, rivers, marshes…
Surrounded by marshes, this former fishing and trading port is now mainly developed around oyster farming and salt production. Immerse yourself in the local culture by discovering its biodiversity thanks to information panels and guided tours.
Stroll to the harbour and its oyster huts to taste oysters and « éclade », the local culinary speciality. As you continue your walk, you will come across one of the many trails that guide you through the village and the surroundings. Explore the destination in a more playful way with Le Train des Mouettes and its steam locomotive, as well as with kayaks on the Seudre river.
Take your bike to follow the Chemins de la Seudre: an itinerary leading you to La Tremblade. Enjoy the harbours and marshes’ beauty on either side of the river.
Admire the town center and its pretty houses with white facades and coloured shutters. In Mornac, the artisans you encounter are also artists.
Over the course of the 20th century, the town has developed a wide range of arts and crafts: weaving, pottery, stained glass, wood sculpture, ceramic decorating, etc… all of which are still preserved today, hence its "Ville et métiers d’Art" label.
