Aunis is a former province of France. It extended to Marais Poitevin in the north, Basse Saintonge (and Niortais) in the east, and Rochefortais in the south. Aunis had an influence approximately 20-25 km into the Isle of Ré (l'île de Ré).

Today, it is a part of the Charente-Maritime département along with Saintonge.
