Ecomuseum of the Peninsula - The Huts of the Estuary

This Ecomuseum is dedicated to the history of the Maritime Estuary. One of the many exhibitions there explains the life-cycle of oysters, their environment and the town's tradition. The museum also put the emphasis on the history of oyster-farming with a display of tools and scale models.

Here, one of the huts offers visitors an opportunity to learn about the local environment and activities, including oyster-farming, through a slideshow of 400 images of Port des Barques.

Guided tour focusing solely on oyster farming and shrimp fishing.

Exceptional closure of the site for the 2024 season.
