Cap Ferret far end
To get there it is nice to take the path of "L'Abécédaire des Dunes" located at the entrance of Cap Ferret (Allée des Dunes).
This path allows you to enjoy a magnificent view of the Dune, the Ocean and the Banc d'Arguin.

From the top of its 53m and 258 steps a grand panorama awaits you: oyster beds, Bird Island, Dune du Pilat and Ocean and in the lighthouse park you will find a blockhouse, refurnished as originally, as well as a path botanical.
