Splendid location. The calm of the sea, the beauty of the ocean. Location only for the happy few. Gastronomic restaurants nearby.
The Arcachon Basin is a wedge along the Atlantic Coast with magnificent beaches of miles of fine sand and acres of pine forest. The opening of the Basin lies between the Dune du Pyla and Cap Ferret.
On the southern edge of the Basin is the highest dune in Europe, the great Dune du Pyla - one of the most famous natural phenomena in the southern areas of France. The Dune is 2500m long and 500m wide, and reaches a height of 107m. At the summit, the view is spectacular with the ocean coast, the inlet of the Bay, the large pine forest, Cap Ferret and, when the sky is very clear, the Pyrenees Range.
Pyla village is a 3-4 minute walk from the Villa, offering a grocery store, post office, restaurants, chemist, sailing school and tourist information office.
