The beach of the Corniche au Pilat

Located at the bottom of the Dune du Pilat, the beach of the Corniche is a magnificent site with enchanting charms that won over more than one heart! Established in front of the bench of Arguin, this tourist place provides a wonderful view of the bay of Arcachon, but also of the ocean that emerges on the horizon of the peninsula. In order to reach that place, you just have to go down a staircase to the right of the Hotel de Corniche.

It is a beach that is meticulously watched over by a rescue station located north of the sand dune during the summer periods, where the site is permanently crammed with tourists. Majestically nestled at the bottom of the dune of Pilat, the seaside resort is a heavenly place ideal to embellish the outings with family or with friends. Originality and authenticity are the words that suit perfectly the Corniche beach.

Those who get peckish can benefit from delicious moments around the snack table which is located close to the beach. To reach the site, it is necessary to join the Avenue de l'Océan which then leads to the Avenue Louis de Gaume. From there you will find the path that leads to the site. Do not worry about parking, as there is free parking, ready to accommodate your car in any season.

Because of its magical character, the beach of the Corniche has already been used as the shooting place of the film "Camping" with the famous Franck Dubosc. It offers an exceptional location due to the fact that it is served by the dune, reaching 107 m of altitude, thus providing more space for visitors who want to explore the beach and its surrounding areas. Exactly with regard to its surroundings, this one is beautifully adorned with large trees whose pines are those that dominate the scenery.
