Sea, Oysters and Europe’s Tallest Sand Dune
Arcachon is a French resort on the Atlantic coast, about 55 km from the city of Bordeaux. Known for its oyster farms, Dune of Pyla, the long sandy beaches and the Victorian houses, this seaside city is a perfect holiday destination.
Set among the ocean and a pine forest, the breathtaking Great Dune of Pyla is the tallest sand dune in Europe. Reaching a height of about 107 metres and a length of 3 km, this natural miracle is a massive hill ideal for paragliding.
Popular for its oyster production, Arcachon was home to one of the first farms opened in 1849. Today about 60% of the oysters in France come from this region. Visit a waterside restaurant and savour delicious oyster dishes accompanied by a glass of fine French wine.

The reception staff were very welcoming and helpful. We had booked dinner in a nearby hotel for a dinner and the staff organised a taxi for us to travel there. Otherwise, everything you needed is in a pleasant walking distance. I can't wait to return to Arachon

Arcachon is a clean and welcoming place with plenty to do and lots of lovely places to eat. There are many options for boat trips in the Bassin d’ Arcachon, which are well worth doing. There is an excellent, cheap bus service to access places further than walking distance and the station has regular trains.

Arcachon is a lovely French seaside town.
Arcachon is a lovely French seaside town. Lovely mix of architecture, great food and great shopping. Lots to do, swimming, walking, cycling, and boating. Great cycle out to the Dune de Pyla and the view from the top is fantastic! Lovely boat ride to Cap Ferret and again a lovely cycle to the lighthouse. Arcachon ticks all the boxes for a couples/ family holiday. No late bars or clubs so not for the younger ones.

We were warned that Arcachon is very touristy and although there were many there (mid June), it didn‘t come across that way. Nice beach and promontory with lots of cafes and restaurants. Shopping streets including covered market were also worth visiting. Park above the downtown was beautiful. We took a train to Bordeaux for a day (50 min) which worked out very well. The nearby Pilate dunes are worth visiting. A boat outing to Cap Ferret is also recommended. We liked Le Pitt for good oysters a bit away from the beach and with fair prices.

This is a charming cozy little beach town, and there are a lot of nice shops and restaurants and cafes within walking distance. The pedestrian zone and sidewalks are very wheelchair accessible, as are many (but not all) of the shops and restaurants. Most of the shops and restaurants we visited were very welcoming and they made us feel like they were genuinely happy that we stopped in. The sea and boardwalk along the beach are extra bonuses. But bring a windproof jacket and a rain cape just in case!
One disappointment is the fact that the aquarium is closed and apparently has been for at least 2 years, and yet it is still on the tourist maps and websites. We really would have enjoyed the aquarium and we hope maybe it will be back again soon.
Fantastic hotel, well located slightly outside the city centre but close to local restaurants, café and bars. Location is nice as you have beaches and city centre within a short walking distance. You have a bike rental close if you would like but not necessary as everything is close to the hotel. Rooms was spacious, clean with a large balcony and view of the village or the beaches. Staff is very supporting and helpful and cleaning was very good. Parking availibilty is appreciated.
Fabulous apartment next to the port and a super restaurant for our first meal on holiday. Better than any hotel in Arcachon.
We didn't use the kitchen facilities as we ate out in various restaurants near the sea. The Samsung TV has Netflix, Prime and other channels. Perfect for a couple. Thank you Sonia for a super welcome. We will book again when the predicted rain stops!
Although we are not the "camping kind of people", we really liked this experience. Cozy, close to the center of Arcachon, equipped with everything you need, nice socializing area. Great for families! We would definitely recommend to visit this place when being in the area.
location was great. the gentleman on reception was brilliant, gave perfect direction for the secure car park and couldn’t have been more helpful. the room was spacious and light, overlooking the square. a short stay but excellent one. highly recommend this hotel, thanks
Everything was fabulous. The staff were friendly, the sauna was lovely, the apartment was clean, spacious, and well -equipped -- I wish that I could've stayed longer! I would definitely stay here again if ever in the area in the future.
The staff were all friendly and helpful. Hotel a lovely 10/15 minute walk to the centre. Excellent room, very clean, comfortable and spacious with lots of space for clothing etc. Would definitely stay there again.
the hotel is off the main drag in a very quiet quaint part of town close to the sea. GREAT coffee machines in the rooms and using all compostable recyclable packaging for their in room amenities.
Fabulous hotel. Beautiful rustic style that you only get in France. Rooms lovely. Staff very friendly and helpful. Arcachon in general a stunning place to visit. Would definitely recommend.
