The Petanque Quay

It's the must-visit place for any self-respecting boules player in Nantes. The Petanque Quay has courts set up with a view of the Loire River. The sunny exposure is balanced out by a shaded area thanks to the trees (to avoid sunstroke, it's not a bad idea).

Parc de Beaulieu

You can't not find a great spot to throw some boules in the huge Parc de Beaulieu! With a whopping 13.37 hectares, there are several terrains available to the public. If they're occupied, there are always the gravel paths that can be used (but watch out for those tricky bounces...).

The Grand Blottereau Park

It is one of the largest parks in Nantes with over 19 hectares, and it is also one of the most beautiful in the city of the Dukes. A magnificent setting for some games with friends and to tease them for days on end. A dedicated area is located in the park's playground (next to the basketball and tennis courts).

La Cantine du Voyage

Do you want to play until late into the night even if the weather is rainy? We have the solution! The Cantine offers the opportunity to play until 11:30 PM, under a sheltered area, with the bar lending you the boules. Additionally, food and drinks are readily available, adding to the festive atmosphere that we all love. At La Cantine, you can "play petanque" endlessly.
