Best views from Sainte-Marguerite beach
Spot sternes and bernaches from shore
Sandeau named a character Pornichet here
Jules Sandeau's 1871 novel immortalized this rocky outcrop, now a protected sanctuary where seabirds rule. Île de la Pierre Percée sits just offshore, visible but untouchable: landing is forbidden so terns and silver gulls can nest undisturbed.
