The Passage du Gois (French pronunciation:[pasaʒdyɡwa]) or Gôa is a causeway between Beauvoir-sur-Mer and the island of Noirmoutier, in Vendée on the Atlantic coast of France. The causeway is 4.125 kilometres (2.6 mi) long[1] and is flooded twice a day by the high tide. A road runs along the causeway.
Every year, a foot race – the Foulées du Gois – is held across it, starting at the onset of high tide.[2]
