The Cap Ferret peninsula is a real bit of paradise that separates the Atlantic Ocean from the Bassin d’Arcachon, and forms a gorgeous and authentic location in which nature rules supreme.
Fringed by the pine forest, the beaches and the sand dunes, this seaside resort with its laid-back atmosphere has some down-to-earth times in store for you, with the emphasis on relaxation and being together. The 25km that make up this peninsula pass through no fewer than 10 villages, including Lège and Cap Ferret.
Whether you're travelling on foot or by bike, come and enjoy some lovely strolls and explore the variety of gems you'll find here, which include the oyster-farming village of Le Canon, la Réserve Naturelle Nationale des Prés Salés (saltings), the village of l’Herbe, the Cap Ferret lighthouse and 25km of beaches too!
You'll also be able to see the Cap Ferret lighthouse and its permanent exhibition. And when you get to the top, you can take in the 360° views over the inlet called the Mimbeau sandbank, the Dune du Pilat and the oyster beds, which make for some great photos. What more could you ask!
