Fouras, also known as Fouras-les-Bains, is a coastal commune situated in the Charente-Maritime department of western France. This seaside town, positioned on a peninsula where the Charente River meets the Atlantic Ocean, has a rich maritime history dating back to medieval times.

The town is notably marked by its 15th-century pentagonal fortress, Fort Vauban, which was built to protect the entrance to the Charente River and the arsenal of Rochefort. Today, Fouras maintains its historical character while serving as a family-friendly seaside resort. The town's cultural heritage is closely tied to its maritime traditions, with several historical fortifications that reflect its strategic importance in coastal defense. Its location and history make it an interesting destination for those interested in both military architecture and maritime culture.
