Activities:
It’s hard to choose from the multitude of activities the region has to offer! Ideally situated, you can enjoy all the town’s attractions; set off to explore the spectacular Ville d’Hiver district with its superb early 20th-century houses, its park, and its viewpoint offering breathtaking views over the Bay! The little train opposite the tourist office will give you plenty of ideas for things to discover and a lovely overview of Arcachon! At lunchtime, treat yourself to some oyster tasting at one of the Bassin’s oyster ports – perhaps at La Teste, or Gujan, or at Arcachon market just down the road (bring a container if you’d like them opened for you, and don’t go too late if you want this service), then set off to conquer the majestic Dune du Pyla. If you fancy heading out to sea, there are regular boat shuttles from the Thiers jetty – a 3-minute walk from your accommodation – to Cap Ferret, the Île aux Oiseaux and the famous stilted huts! The Banc d’Arguin, with its crystal-clear waters, is paradise on earth! Paddle down the River Leyre to the bird sanctuary at Le Teich – choose to be accompanied by a guide, or go it alone in your kayak – it’s simply sublime!
