Noirmoutier: bike on the island, car to get there
On the island, bikes and the Gratibus shuttles cover most journeys, especially in summer. A car is still handy to get here from Nantes or to combine Noirmoutier with the Vendée coast: use the comparison tool below to rent a vehicle at Nantes airport or station, then cross the toll-free bridge, or the Gois at low tide.
