During your stay as a family, couple or group of friends at the 4-star campsite on the Île de RéHere, you can enjoy water sports, swim in the Atlantic Ocean, sunbathe on sandy beaches, discover the Vauban fortifications, hire a bike to ride the cycle paths through the woods and salt marshes, and explore picturesque villages bustling with life on market days. If you love classical music, you should try to meet someone who excels in her art: Sarah Nemtanu.
An exceptional violinist
Born in 1981 to a violinist father, Sarah Nemtanu began studying the violin with her family. Incredibly gifted for her young age, she entered the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris in 1997 and honed her immense talent.
She won the 1st Maurice Ravel prize in Saint-Jean-de-Luz in 1998 and 3rd prize in the International Stradivarius Competition three years later, in 2001. Concertmaster of the Orchestre national de France since 2002, Sarah Nemtanu is admired by the public and coveted by the greatest conductors.
Sarah Nemtanu and Île de Ré, a special connection
It was while visiting friends that the violin virtuoso discovered Ré la Blanche and the Charente archipelago. From now on, she can’t imagine a year without setting foot on Rennes soil. During her exploration, she realized that several places had fabulous acoustics, notably the church in Loix, and she loves contemplating the sunsets in October and strolling along the port of Saint-Martin-de-Ré, which she considers magnificent. Sarah Nemtanu loves theÎle de Ré for its infinite horizons that open the mind, its immense and varied landscapes, its luminosity and the aura of mystery that hovers over it.
