Unlike the beaches of the French Riviera, Arcachon has no such beach entertainment as inflatable slides, banana boat rides, or pedal boats.
Instead, you can always embark on a boat trip around the bay, visit Bird Island to watch its feathered inhabitants, or enjoy a relaxing day of fishing.
Windsurfing has also become one of the most popular water activities in Arcachon, thanks to the area’s tides and currents.
An original alternative is sand surfing on the famous Dune of Pilat. Be sure to give it a try — we are certain you’ll love the experience!
