Another of France's offshore islands in the Atlantic close to the mainland is Noirmoutier. Le Passage de Gois is a paved (for one lane) natural embankment, 4.5 km long, leading to the island from Beauvoir-sur-Mer which is flooded twice a day by the high tide so vehicle drivers need to be off it by then if they don't want to be bathed by rust-causing saltwater underneath.
