Cheap Car Rental Arcachon

Around an hour’s drive southwest of Bordeaux is where the beautiful resort Arcachon is located. White, sandy beaches and a lot of sun await visitors, but the location of Arcachon is something special.  Soyez indépendant grâce à votre voiture de location.

The Bay of Arcachon is a huge basin that almost forms its own inland waters and the tides here are especially strong. The area of tidelands that are regularly laid bare by the sea and the sandbanks attract a lot of birds to brood here. This has turned the area into a unique bird sanctuary. Prenez votre voiture de location pour vivre des vacances mémorables.

Arcachon itself is famous for its remarkable architecture from the mid 19th century. At about this time this city started its rise to fame as a prominent seaside resort which especially during the summer months attracted guests from around the world.

Laissez la vue vous enchantez tout en conduisant votre voiture de location.The local casino still has its old charm even today and is for non-gamblers also worth seeing. If you take a walk you will realize that the districts of the city are easy to distinguish from one another. The Jetée Thiers, also the Pier, is the lively quarter of Arcachon. Here there are bars, restaurants and taverns to go to. The Ville d'Eté stretches along the beach somewhat to the west and further to the south on a wooded hillside there is the Ville d'Hiver. Here there are so many villas with different architectural styles and a mishmash of many types of style elements that you could easily take a text book and go on a crash course in architecture. About a hundred years ago, rich people from Bordeaux wanted to design their vacation home in a special way and that allowed some well known architects to have a field day. It is definitely worth seeing. The seemingly never ending fine, white sandy beaches stretch towards the southwest away from the city.  Profitez de votre liberté au volant de votre location voiture.

This is where all kinds of water sports imaginable are engaged in. The conditions are especially excellent and suitable for sailing, windsurfing and scuba diving. If you stroll along the beach you will come to one of the highest sand dunes in Europe. The Dune du Pyla is more than 131 yards high and grows higher into the air during certain windy conditions. From here you have a fantastic view of the Atlantic Ocean. The sunsets are highly recommended for the more romantically inclined tourists.  
Your physical well being can not be ignored in Arcachon. Supposedly the best oyster farmers in France are here in the Bay of Arcachon and they supply the ingredients for wonderfully delicious oyster dishes. Whether roasted, baked or marinated, the menus are full of different variations. The classic oyster appetizer, however, is of course fresh oysters with lemon, buttered bread and an ice cooled Sauvignon Blanc. It is delicious and not even expensive to buy.  Many of the oyster farms can be visited and you are given an introduction on the reproduction of oysters. From Arcachon there are many possibilities to go on tours to other places, since many sights to see are along the way. There are old castles and palaces, the bird park Parc Ornithologique du Teich or the old stilt houses in the middle of the bay. The latter, however, can only be reached by boat. With the rental car you can drive into historical Bordeaux and look at the many famous wineries that you pass by on the way there. A jaunt through Médoc, which is just to the north of Bordeaux, is highly recommended. Here you can learn about how good wine is made by taking tours of cool wine cellars and sunny vineyards. Afterwards you will understan why wine from this region has been popular for so many centuries. Especially the wineries of Lafit, Mouton Rothschild or Margaux are considered to be true treasures in France and the one or the other visitor will treat themselves to the pleasure of such a wine.
