Île de Ré bridge from La Pallice, the commercial port area of La Rochelle on the northern side of the Pertuis d'Antioche strait. La Pallice is the port area of La Rochelle in France's Charente Maritime and is notable for the monolithic concrete German U-boat dock dating back to WW2. It is otherwise a working area with the main focus being on its commercial deep-water port used for cargo and fishing ships. There is a lively market here on Sunday mornings.
