Cruise without a license: Le Boat Jarnac
Last updated on 16/01/2026
No-license-required boating: Le Boat Jarnac: your dog is welcome here
With the boats without a license from the Le Boat Jarnac base , your dog will experience an unforgettable adventure on the water with you in Charente.
The base is located in Jarnac , a 9-hour boat trip from the fortified city of Angoulême.
On board the boats, you'll discover new landscapes each day and can enjoy lovely walks along the towpaths or in the nearby parks. Sailing west at 7:30 am, you can explore the historic city of Saintes and then reach St. Savinien (10:30 am from Jarnac). We recommend taking the train to Rochefort to savor its delicious seafood.
All dogs, small and large, are welcome, with suitable options available.
Additional cleaning fees apply for pets.
