Climbing the Dune du...
David_B, Aug 2025
Climbing the Dune du Pilat was an unreal experience — absolutely breathtaking and unlike anything else. The views of the Atlantic Ocean on one side and endless pine forest on the other made it unforgettable. Very cool! Unfortunately, the rainy weather cut our visit to Arcachon short, so we weren’t able to walk around and explore the town. It looked charming from what we saw, and I’d definitely love to come back in better weather
