The Dune of Pilat
If you’re planning to spend a day along the seaside in Gironde, why not make the most of it to climb the highest dune in Europe! The Dune of Pilat awaits you, no less than 110m / 360ft tall and 3km / 1.8 mi long. Once at the top, you’ll be rewarded by a magnificent view over the Landes forest and Arcachon Bay.
If you’re looking for a restaurant or to relax on fine sand, Arcachon Bay is the place to be: from Lège-Cap-Ferret to La Teste de Buch, there is no limit to the convivial possibilities in Gironde.
