A crimson paraglider wing hovers above the stunning interplay of golden sand and azure waters where Europe's tallest coastal dune meets the Atlantic Ocean. The unique aerial perspective from Dune du Pilat reveals the extraordinary hydrodynamics of the Arcachon Basin, where powerful tidal forces—moving over 400 million cubic meters of water twice daily—continuously reshape the protected Banc d'Arguin Nature Reserve below into an intricate network of channels and sandbars that has made this region a paradise for both naturalists and adventure sports enthusiasts.
