You can discover the banks of the Charente on a canoe, walk or bike ride. The bike flow, a bike path, is less than a 1-minute walk from the island. Unless you prefer hiking to discover the pretty trails around. For a cultural getaway, the island is conveniently located between Angouleme and Cognac, a 25 and 45 minute drive respectively. These cities benefit from the city of art and history label and many parties and events are scheduled there all year round. There are numerous villages and sites to visit as well as many activities close to the island.
