The harbor's pontoon of Andernos - Andernos-les-Bains

The harbor's pontoon of Andernos

Le port d'Andernos

Favorite thing: Le port d'Andernos comprends deux parties :
Le ponton pour les bateaux de tourisme et les navettes qui relient Andernos aux autres villages autour du bassin. C'est aussi à cet endroit que vous pouvez embarquer pour des balades vers les parcs à huître ou les maisons sur pilotis au milieu du lac...
Près de ce ponton sont amarrés les bateaux de plaisance.

The harbor of Andernos consists of two parts:
The pontoon for the boats of tourism and the shuttles that join Andernos in the other villages around the basin. It is also at this place that you can embark for jaunts toward the parks to oyster or the houses on stilt in the middle of the lake...
Close to this pontoon are moored the boats of pleasure.

Fondest memory: Le port de pêche et des mareyeurs est plus à l'écart, à la sortie du village.

The harbor of fishing and mareyeurs is more aside, to the exit of the village.
