Stop atGreat Dune of Pilat
We will continue with the highest dune in Europe, the Dune of Pilat (100 meters high). After parking under the pines, you will climb with your guide to the top. The dune is equipped with a staircase, but you can also climb into the sand. At the top you will be dazzled by the panoramic view of the Atlantic Ocean, the Cap Ferret peninsula and the forest behind the dune. An unforgettable experience. To better enjoy it, your guide will give you some free time to explore the dune.

Small Group Adventure.

We had a great time! The oysters were great and the Dunes were amazing. I would recommend anyone considering, to move forward. Worth the money and a small group of no more than 9 is perfect.
