Holidays! Those delicious days off, sunbathing and reading a book. Or are you more interested in discoveries and excursions? The team at Camping de la Pointe du Médoc Sunêlia has some of the best ideas for visits in Gironde.
Nature is everywhere
Between land and sea, you can admire a variety of natural areas, both wild and man-made. Let's take a breath of fresh air:
· The Grotte de Pair-non-Pair: decorated with prehistoric engravings, a visit here will also reveal the story behind the strange name!
· Le Teich ornithological reserve: discover the wildlife that has made its home in the Arcachon Basin along a 6km observation trail.
· La Dune du Pyla: the highest in Europe and certainly the most famous. A roll down it is a must for all the family!
· The Gironde Estuary: many merchant ships pass through here. The surrounding landscape is dominated by cliffs, wineyards and islands.
