Fishing on La Tara beach: fun for everyone!

Located in La Plaine-sur-Mer, La Tara beach is an ideal spot to indulge in the joys of fishing on foot. Accessible to all, this activity is a fantastic opportunity to enjoy the natural riches of the coastline with family or friends.

🦀 What can you fish for on La Tara beach?
La Tara beach is characterised by its fine sand and rocks, creating a diverse environment that is home to a multitude of shellfish.
Cockles, curlers, prawns, periwinkles... fans of shore fishing are sure to find something to their liking on this beach.

👉 Want to find out more about shore fishing?
Fishing on foot is a relaxing activity that lets you enjoy the fresh sea air. It's also an opportunity to learn more about the local flora and fauna.

All year round, and particularly during the school holidays, events and discovery workshops are organised on the Tara beach to raise public awareness of sustainable fishing and coastal protection.
We recommend the nature outing "En route pour la pêche à pied" at La Plaine-sur-Mer proposed by Julie and Vincent, professional guides with Echos nature.

🎣 Equipment for a fishing trip
Here are some essential tools for a successful fishing trip:

•     regulation fishing basket: fitted with a red rope, it allows you to comply with quotas and carry your shellfish and crustaceans
•     rakes, scoops, knives
•     callipers to measure the required size
•     waterproof boots or shoes for walking in the water or on the rocks without slipping
•     clothing suited to the weather conditions.

If you need the right equipment for a fishing trip, don't hesitate to visit the shops in our 7 Tourist Offices (La Plaine-sur-Mer, Préfailles, Saint-Michel-Chef-Chef, Pornic, La Bernerie-en Retz; Les Moutiers-en-Retz and Villeneuve-en-Retz).
