By the sea
Two shipping companies operate links with the mainland
There are two ways to discover the jewels of Yeu Island:
The public company Yeu Continent operates year-round connections. Two high-speed catamarans reach the mainland in around 30 minutes, while the Insula Oya cargo and passenger ship takes around 60 minutes. This company handles not only passengers, but also vehicles and bicycles. This company will take care of your baggage before boarding, and baggage containers are available before each ship departure.
The second, Compagnie Vendéenne, operates from April to October in 45 minutes from Fromentine and 60 minutes from Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie. This company does not allow its customers to carry bicycles or bulky objects.
Whatever the airline, we recommend that you book your tickets in advance, especially during busy periods.
Bicycle rental
A popular means of transport for islanders and holidaymakers alike, bicycles are ideal for admiring the island’s varied landscapes at your own pace. That’s why our establishment offers you preferential rates for bike hire with two professional rental companies:
Good to know: For multi-day rentals, a bike room is available within the hotel. Please note that there is no electricity for recharging electric bikes. Only Yeu Loc supplies the key to remove the battery for recharging.
During busy periods, we advise you to reserve your bikes. To help you plan your stay, various rental companies offer online booking.
Fromentine parking lot
If you are departing from Fromentine, there are several parking options available:
The Yeu continent company offers its customers free, unsupervised parking, some 20 minutes from the pier. Please note that for July and August, reservations are required to use this service.
Our partner offers you a totally secure parking solution close to the ferry terminal. The Blanchard parking lot offers a 10% discount to our customers on presentation of the hotel bill, so remember to pay only on departure.
