The island is connected to the mainland by the Passe aux Boeufs, a kilometer-long sand and gravel road. It is only navigable at low tide. Passage is free, but pay close attention to the tides so as not to be trapped by rising water.

Easy and pleasant family hike in a beautiful setting, in the heart of the Charentais coast. No tourist overcrowding. Consult the passage times at low tide for Passe aux Boeufs (Isle Madame timetables).
