Recover from Surgery in La Rochelle

13/08/2014



La Rochelle is a beautiful city that sits in the western part of France, next to the Atlantic Ocean. Due to its positioning La Rochelle has a naturally Oceanic climate which remains fairly mild throughout the year due to the Gulf Stream waters. Arguably this is the perfect type of climate if you are choosing somewhere to relax and recover from surgery, no extreme cold and no extreme heat to contend with.




This classic city boasts the ‘Old Harbour’ and many city walls which are still intact, so you can enjoy a relaxing walk around sightseeing during the day or a stroll and enjoy the fine cuisine in one of the many seafood restaurants.


If you find water calming and soothing why not take a boating trip to the Ile d’Aix or Fort Boyard. If having your feet on land is more your thing then La Rochelle has numerous attractions to tempt you.




Numerous museums are on offer ranging from the aquatic theme of the Aquarium of La Rochelle and the Maritime Museum to the Natural History Museum and the Museum of the New World.


You can also experience the gothic and renaissance periods of La Rochelle by visiting the three Towers of Rochelle, the Town Hall, the Cathedral and the Law Courts.




If you simply want to enjoy a bit of time to yourself to recover from surgery then taking in the breath-taking scenery of the many parks and gardens will be more your cup of tea.
