Come the weekend, Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie shows its true colours. The channel, before the arches of the Beneteau building, busy with the output of its boatyards.
Novice windsurfers nervously wobble out, from the gently shelving sands. Safe in the knowledge that, if needs must, they may wade back ashore.
In the rockier reaches, anglers cast their lines. No waders required, in these warm climes.
The tongue-twister-town has metamorphosed into snappy Port La Vie. Resort, for recreational sailors and sea-loving 'lubbers.
The visitor pontoon, near empty upon Stargazer's midweek arrival, fills through Friday afternoon. New arrivals rafting, by Saturday morning.
