Winter on L'Île de Ré

Jutting out from the western coast of France is la the petite island of Ré- or simply put ‘heaven on earth’. With it's uniformed white-washed facade, bluish-green shuttered buildings, this ridiculously quaint sea-salt producing, oyster mongering island is never more pleasant or peaceful than in the winter months. When the absence of the throngs of tourists that populate this island during the summer gives way to a truly authentic “French” fishing village experience.
