This aerial photograph shows levelling work conducted at the southern tip of Fort Boyard, off the Aix island in the Atlantic Ocean, southwestern France, on June 18, 2026. Levelling work started in July 2025, aiming at protecting the fort from marine erosion and creating a flat surface on the seabed to allow the construction of a promontory and a harbor by 2028 to enable tourist boats to dock for visits of the site, listed as a historical monument.
