Bleu Soleil Rochefort 3 étoiles

Taste Pierre Gagnaire’s free-spirited culinary vision at Gaya, part of La Grande Terrasse Hotel, not far from Les Boucholeurs. The local score seamlessly mixes surf and turf ingredients in elegant dishes flanked by high-flying jus, sauces and crèmes. An example: small oysters and razor clams steamed in white wine and paired with wild seaweed and finely chopped cauliflower. Swish service and a stylish interior, all of which with a breathtaking view of the ocean. Splendid wine list and wines by the glass from magnum bottles.

This picturesque 19C blue and white house stands on the boulevard that skirts the immense beach. Take a seat in a contemporary dining room overlooking the sea and dig into beautifully presented super-fresh fish and shellfish platters, the establishment’s pride and joy. Guaranteed to find favour with seafood lovers!

This modern spacious seafront restaurant boasts a panoramic terrace, ideal for sunset snapshots, and indoors, a suspended fireplace for warmth during colder months. The cheerful, spot-on service team celebrates a seafood-centric menu sourced from local fish auctions and the emblematic oysters of the Gillardeau family, who owns the establishment, as well as a fine lineup of meat dishes. The chef adds an exotic touch courtesy of spicy seasonings and influences from further afield. Stay for longer in one of four suites which have a balcony or a terrace with a sea view.
