A market morning, then a picnic for two

Browse seasonal produce, pick a few things to share and let lunch find its own spot.

Start at Arcachon’s covered market or explore a nearby town’s stalls. Ask what is in season, then build a simple picnic together from bread, fruit and something local. Market days and hours change, so check municipal information before setting out.

Make it a date

Leave a little room for the weather, the tide and whatever catches your attention along the way.
