1 review of Etang de Vaccarès - Lagoon

Beautiful Brushstrokes

Excellent

On our journey through the Nature Park of the Camargue, we decided to get into the D-37 and follow its course, without a specific destination, just letting ourselves be guided by the pleasure of discovery and enjoy this breathtaking scenery. The road makes a turn to the south to enter the vast Etang de Vaccarès, the heart of the Camargue, which is the largest space available in the area. I was really amazed, speechless, at the vastness of nature there. Everything is so careful, so protected, giving you the feeling that you're being "bothersome". We decided to stop the car and walk around the sights, the incessant Mistral following us through southern France.

The heat was oppressive, but the wind carried a refreshing mist, cooling the atmosphere. This is the undescribable feeling of living. There are times when the road narrows, the water almost touches you, and the lonesome feeling is everywhere. Occasionally, another car appears and it's difficult to pass eachother at the same time. In the lower areas and near the shore, flamingos show themselves, giving the landscape more beautiful brushstrokes. It's near the mouth of the Rhone, in the department of Bouches du Rhone, and the purest nature is everywhere. Saintes Maries de la Mer and the Camargue keep love in our hearts and are, without doubt, special places. By the way, I discovered that this population was included in a new classification: "Les plus beaux detours de France" (most beautiful destinations in France), here's the website:'https://www.plusbeauxdetours.com.'
