Evening sunlight bathes the exposed sandbanks of Bassin d'Arcachon in a golden glow, creating a stunning contrast with the deep blue channels as viewed from beneath the wing of an ultralight aircraft. This daily transformation—when retreating tides expose nearly two-thirds of the basin's 155-square-kilometer surface—reveals the remarkable landscape that has inspired artists from Toulouse-Lautrec to contemporary photographers, a natural canvas where light, water, and sand combine to create one of France's most distinctive and visually captivating coastal environments.
