Summary edit

Description
English: This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 15 March 2021, shows Île de Ré, an island off the coast of north-western France. The landscapes of Île de Ré include beaches, dunes, mudflats, salt marshes and small water channels. Due to its rich biodiversity and role in hosting numerous fragile habitats, Île de Ré has been classified as a Natura 2000 site under the EU Birds and Habitats Directive. Île de Ré, along with its neighbour La Rochelle, is part of the European Fisheries Network (FARNET).This initiative promotes sustainable development practices for marine tourism, Blue Growth and the maritime economy. The data provided by Copernicus satellites and services make it possible to conduct comprehensive analyses on how EU policies are being implemented, including those related to the operation and development of fishing and farming areas, as well as the protection of crucial biodiversity sites.
