The yellow wing of an ultralight aircraft frames a breathtaking aerial perspective of the dynamic sandbanks guarding the entrance to Bassin d'Arcachon, France's largest tidal lagoon. Europe's tallest sand dune, the Dune du Pilat, creates this narrow passage that constantly shifts under tidal forces, where twice daily over 400 million cubic meters of water flow through the inlet, reshaping this ever-changing maritime threshold.
