Spring hunting in the Pays d'Olonne
Sainte-Foy flea market animates this small Pays d'Olonne community on Sunday 17 May 2026. Minutes from Les Sables-d'Olonne and the Vendée coast, this friendly event draws locals and hunters in a rural atmosphere. Ideal for bargain hunters on the coast and in the bocage.
Sainte-Foy is a rural community of about 1,000 in the Pays d'Olonne, minutes from Les Sables-d'Olonne and coastal beaches. It's one of those small communes with active community life, and the annual flea market is a key event.
The 2026 edition is Sunday 17 May. Held in the village centre or on a dedicated area, it gathers 50-100 exhibitors from Sainte-Foy and around. Family atmosphere, typical of rural events.
Sainte-Foy is perfectly placed to combine hunting and tourism: Les Sables-d'Olonne and its seafront just 10 min, Olonne-sur-Mer beaches 5 min, the Olonne forest for shaded walks nearby. Heritage lovers can see the village's Sainte-Foy church.
Sainte-Foy is the kind of small community where authentic Vendée life is lived, far from tourist bustle but just as appealing. The flea market captures village-fete spirit with drinks, food and warmth.
Arrive early; bring cash and a shopping bag; haggling is tradition; soak up the village vibe.
