The Dune of Pilat

I'm a city kid. I know dunes from the Baltic Sea. I have no idea how high they can get when they are fully grown.
The statement 'Europe's largest shifting sand dune' in the travel guides therefore means nothing to me.
Now I'm standing in front of it -and it is huge. My nieces would freak out if they saw that there was such a huge pile of sand. 😆

Eventually I climb up and then overlook the nearby forest and a good part of the ocean at the same time. I can see sandbanks and individual tiny sailing ships.

In the evening, I find a really nice spot on the lake of Cazaux and Sanguinet and bathe in it.Meer informatie
