The climate of Poitou-Charentes (France)
The region of Poitou-Charentes is, due to the warm Gulfstream, one of the sunniest places in the west of France. The situation on the Atlantic coast however provides agreeable cooling in the summer, thus it does not get too warm. But due to the smaller influence of the sea the inland of this area is warmer and drier. The sea also provides mild temperatures in the winter. In this region it does not really get cold in the winter. However you get warmed up in no time; the Poitou-Charentes is particularly known for its Cognac. Along the banks of the Charentes in the town of Cognac you can taste this delicious drink at the various wine houses. The region further on also offers the splendid university town of Poitiers where you can wander nicely through the small alleys. The Poitou-Charentes has a varied scenery with green hills, beaches, swamps, vineyards and woods.
