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.
