Arcachon and it's Basin

Located less than 45 minutes from the Hotel Novalis in Gradignan, the Bassin d'Arcachon is a true setting of natural beauty and tranquility. The city of Arcachon itself, divided into four seasons - the City of Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter - offers charming and varied architecture, reflecting the different times of the year.

The seaside is punctuated with sublime beaches, ideal for relaxing, swimming or practicing water sports. The famous Dune du Pilat, the highest sand dune in Europe, offers a spectacular view of the basin and is a must-see attraction for visitors.

Around the Basin, small picturesque towns such as Cap Ferret, with its oyster huts and wild beaches, or Andernos-les-Bains, known for its long piers and relaxed atmosphere, are worth a visit. Each town has its own character and offers unique experiences, from fresh oyster tastings to boat rides on the basin.

The Arcachon Bay is a place of relaxation and discovery, where the beauty of nature blends harmoniously with cultural and gastronomic wealth.
