On the Atlantic coast between La Rochelle and Rochefort, lies the Nature Reserve of Marais d’Yves, one of the most advantageous locations to observe animal life due to its location along a major migratory pathway. Management of the National Nature Reserve Marais d’Yves is undertaken by the association Ligue pour la Protection des Oiseaux, and is one of the 14 Nature Centres in the department of Charente-Maritime.
