A wonderful edition of the Vendée Globe has just come to an end and Les Sables d'Olonne is already preparing to welcome a new round the world adventure.
The Mini Transat race from next September: Eighty-four 6.5m boats will set off from Les Sables to cross the Atlantic, without any assistance or means of communication.
The Golden Globe Race in September 2022: an incredible round-the-world race, the old-fashioned way, without stopovers, without assistance... with a sextant!
A land of sailors and exploits, Les Sables d'Olonne instils a spirit of adventure across the oceans and asserts its position as the World Capital of solo ocean racing!
