From the Gironde estuary to the Atlantic beaches, Nouvelle-Aquitaine stretches its pine forests, its vineyards and its islands across nearly 800 km of coastline. A region where you can go from ocean waves to wine villages in just a few hours by road.
Surfing, tasting oysters and climbing the Dune du Pilat
At La Teste-de-Buch, the Dune du Pilat towers over Arcachon Bay: climb it at sunset, then head to the oyster shacks of Cap Ferret to taste the bay's oysters. Lacanau and Soulac-sur-Mer line up famous surf spots and long beaches pounded by the swell, ideal for learning in summer.
On the Île d'Oléron, rent a bike to explore the salt marshes, the harbours like La Cotinière and the Chassiron lighthouse. Inland, head for the vineyards of the Bordeaux region and Cognac, the markets of the Charente and walks in the Landes forest. With a whole house, you can cook fish from the market and plan your days at your own pace.
Choosing your base between ocean, bay and hinterland
On the bay, Arcachon charms with its Ville d'Hiver and its jetties, while La Teste-de-Buch offers direct access to the Dune. For the ocean and surfing, Lacanau and Soulac-sur-Mer combine beaches with a family seaside atmosphere.
Saint-Pierre-d'Oléron remains a handy starting point for exploring the island. On the quieter hinterland side, Blaignac, Bussac-Forêt and Saint-Vincent-la-Châtre suit stays in the countryside. Our houses, villas and apartments cover these different settings depending on whether you're after the sea or peace and quiet.

Frequently asked questions

Are the properties well rated?
The rated properties show an average of 4.9 out of 5, calculated from 4 rentals reviewed by previous travelers. These reviews are based on real stays and help you compare before booking. Check each listing to read the detailed comments and any points worth noting.
Do you need a car to visit the region?
Yes, a car is strongly recommended. The region stretches over nearly 800 km of coastline, and the wine villages remain poorly served by public transport. Bordeaux-Mérignac and Biarritz airports cover the coastline, and the high-speed train (LGV) connects Paris to Bordeaux in about two hours. After that, having a car remains essential.
What's the best time to visit?
Summer brings beaches, surfing, and oysters from the bay, with heavy crowds in July and August around Lacanau, Arcachon, and Oléron. Spring and September offer mild weather, fewer crowds, and lower prices. Fall is ideal for the vineyards of the Bordeaux and Cognac regions, the grape harvest, and local markets.
Which area should I choose for my stay?
For surfing and long beaches, head to Lacanau or Soulac-sur-Mer. The Arcachon Bay and La Teste-de-Buch give access to the Dune du Pilat and oyster huts. Saint-Pierre-d'Oléron serves as a base for exploring the island. For a quieter stay, Blaignac, Bussac-Forêt, or Saint-Vincent-la-Châtre remain surrounded by greenery.
Can you explore the Île d'Oléron without hassle?
Yes, the Île d'Oléron is connected to the mainland by a free bridge, with no ferry or reservation needed. On the island, cycling lets you explore salt marshes, ports like La Cotinière, and the Chassiron lighthouse. In summer, it's best to arrive early since traffic and parking near the beaches can get complicated.
