Enjoy HOLLOW oysters

The view of the basin

Around the Arcachon basin, the oyster farming villages of Claouey, Petit Piquey, Grand Piquey, Le Canon or L'Herbe punctuate the peninsula. Their colorful wooden huts, open to the water, invite you to discover one of the most emblematic traditions of Cap Ferret: the tasting of oysters in front of the basin. From Villa Colette, the walk often starts along Mimbeau Beach, with the Dune du Pilat on the horizon. We walk barefoot in the sand, we observe the oyster farmers preparing their harvest of the day, and we enjoy the unique calm of these preserved landscapes. At golden hour, simply choose a cabin and sit on the terrace to enjoy the hollow oysters from Cap Ferret, renowned for their delicacy and freshness. A simple and precious moment, with your feet almost in the water, facing the immensity of the pool.
