Outing ideas for Ascension
For this Ascension weekend, we offer you new walks and activities to do on the Bassin in Arcachon, a stone's throw from your home.
Sailing on a sailboat…
Arguin Sailing offers an introduction to sailing, respecting barrier gestures, which can accommodate a family of up to 10 people. Meet at the port of Arcachon and let the adventure begin! (reservation on 06 27 30 52 46)

>Walk by bike in the oyster villages of the peninsula<
The team of Biclous du Bassin has the great pleasure of taking you, in compliance with health standards, to discover the oyster villages of the Cap Ferret peninsula, over a half-day (reservation on 06 52 35 48 19). Share the small and big stories that make up the life of the peninsula of yesterday and today, discover its emblematic characters and local habits and get off the beaten track to discover the real “Bassin Spirit”.

On Cap Ferret, the Mazette shop! within the tourist office, welcomes you every day. Gently deconfinement and discovery of new products signed Cap Ferret in store.

Take a walk in the Domaine de Saint-Brice
Between Ares and Andernos les Bains, Saint-Brice is a secret that we like to share. As a couple or with the family, this preserved space is a little corner of paradise. Kingfishers, otters and egrets were not mistaken! Stroll at your own pace to appreciate the beautiful season and listen carefully: the song of the birds resounds in the branches. Blooming gorse and broom burst into small vivid touches as you pass. Discover all walks on Ares here.


Treetop Surfing
Play the Indiana Jones in the “Bassin Adventures” amusement park, located at Gujan-Mestras. It reopens its doors, with sanitary measures.

Discover Le Teich and its surroundings
With your bikes or rented bicycles, direction the coastal path, departing from port of Teich. The children split the wind and the parents savor the moment. Spy on the birds discreetly, they have just lived 2 months of non-disturb.

Join the Oyster House at the port of Larros in Gujan-Mestras for a fun visit with a guide (rooms limited to 10 people). Throughout the discovery, the queen of Bassin reveals all her secrets to you.

It is also possible to enjoy a ride in an electric boat without a license on the Leyre Delta with Ecopleasure of the Delta (reservation on 07 87 51 89 50) or take a bucolic getaway in the Réserve Ornithologique du Teich respecting of course the health protocol put in place (remember to take your binoculars!).
Currently, no nautical activity (canoe, boat, etc.) is possible on the Leyre river due to recent flooding. We will keep you informed of the reopening of activities on the Bassin blog, Facebook, Twitter and instagram.
