50 shades of oysters

The Bassin from Arcachon invites you to discover a wide range of shades of oysters during your stay!

Restaurateurs, oyster farmers and tourism professionals are proud to enhance the pearl of the Bassin on a daily basis. Discover and taste the essential shellfish, in all its forms! An entire program !

To taste… but not only!

A little, a lot, passionately, everyone loves oysters in their own way. What is certain is that there are for all tastes. Nature, it can be enjoyed in an authentic hut, restaurant or in the heart of an oyster farm. Want to put on the apron? Buy it directly from the market. A zest of lemon will reveal all its character.

Cooked by the chefs of Bassin, it captivates the taste buds and marks each dish with its unique taste. Even pastry is inspired by it! Chocolate oysters or oyster-shaped cakes, the shell can also be savored in sweets.

Detox, revitalizing or purifying, the powers of the oyster are far from being limited to the plate. From shell to flesh, discover an unsuspected ally at the service of beauty and well-being. An original nuance and a know-how that the Bassin treasures.

The oyster has another power unusual : bring children out of their shells! Look for it as a family through a fun treasure hunt full of surprises: terra adventure at the port of Larros.

At the bend of an astonishing garden in Biganos, the oyster finally becomes vegetal. How ? It's up to you to discover it.
