Snow arrived in Loire-Atlantique and Saint-Brevin les Pins on Thursday, February 11, with a white blanket covering the dunes and sandy beaches. The snow also extended to Pays de Retz, along the coast from Pornic and Saint-Michel Chef-Chef to Sainte-Pazanne and Machecoul Saint-Même. A pleasant surprise during your stay in Loire-Atlantique.
