Arcachon

by bugulma - last update: Jul 4, 2006

Wonderful resort

Sea
I was in Arcachon 1 day in january 2005 and 1 day in june 2006 and it were wonderful days. In 2005 my friends, Lionel and Marina, when I came to their house in Bordeaux, offered to me to go to the Atlantic seaside. The second time I enjoyed the city by myself while Lionel has his favorite doing, diving.
I try to found some stories about the place but all of them say that it's usual sailors village as others in the Atlantic seaside and the official sea resort since 1926. I can add that it's wonderful place for living and I think it's a reason for higher prices for property. And Bearitz is not far away.
In 2005 my friends bought oysters and we ate it on the beach. Fantastic feelings.

 I've never been to the town of Arcachon, but when our children were small we used to go camping near there with French friends who had children of the same age. In the summer, of course, not in January!

 A friend of mine just moved to Arcachon, so I hope I'll visit it soon :). Oh...and Happy Birthday, Andrey!

 You begin updating (since my visit your page on 29 of March) - that's fine. I quite agree with you, Arcachon is worth visiting for the second time. A friend of mine is going to Bearitz - it's close to Arcachon. I'll advise him to visit this place.
