The surrounding countryside, known as the Moors of Gironde has a rich and varied number of places to visit and enjoy.
The ocean
The Atlantic coast with his miles of sandy beaches stretching as far as the eye can see, is a fantastic place to swim in on the supervised beaches. The pounding waves make it an area well known for surfing, or try your hand at body boarding for beginners.

Arcachon
The celerated 19th centuary seaside resort of Arcachon home to a variety of architectural buildings is still a thriving fishing port today. Amongst its elegant facade, the marina and sea food restaurants sit along side each other, and the oyster upon which the town built its wealth, is still eaten vociferiusly today.
