will be attending a wedding in Charente....what to see and where to go?

We will be attending a wedding in Charente, and will be heading back home on a flight out of bordeaux...

We will have a car, I have not been to this part of France before and am looking for any guidance. We have 3-4 days, would love to spend a day or two near the ocean, not sure where to stay or where to start.

many, many thanks in advance! All advice is most appreciated!

I suggest going to La Rochelle - it's gorgeous and the seafood is tops. Also because I love the film LES DEMOISELLES DE ROCHEFORT (Gene Kelly, Catherine Deneuve) , I like going to Rochefort.

And when you're finished visiting lovely La Rochelle and lovely Rochefort you can go easily to the islands Re and Oleron
