Presentation

Meet our enthusiasts - Discover the fish weirs
"An ancestral maritime heritage...and a history to preserve !"


 
Who hasn't noticed these stones on the foreshore, arranged in the shape of an arc or an inverted V?
Step back in time with Josette Collot, accompanied by a guide from the Tourist Office. Discover this forgotten fishing technique, the history of these weirs, their construction, and the restoration of this heritage site, which is being maintained by two local associations: the Association of Shore Fishermen of the Jade Coast (APPCC) and the Association for the Preservation and Protection of the Natural Heritage of La Bernerie-en-Retz (RPNDC).

Three good reasons to take this tour:
  • Discover aspects of this ancient fishing technique, from the construction of the sluice to how it works.
  • Share a moment rich in local anecdotes and stories.
  • Enjoy a breath of fresh air on the foreshore.
