Private Day Motorboat Trip in the Arcachon Basin

About the Activity

What to Expect

Here is the perfect day in the Arcachon Basin that allows you to discover its must-see sights with our private motorboat trip. We start by departing from the port of Arcachon and head towards the Cap Ferret. This charming spot is just the beginning of your adventure.

Next, we will visit the serene Mimbeau Creek and its lovely beach, where you can relax and take in the beautiful surroundings. As we continue, we will pass by the typical oyster farms and the impressive Bernet Banks, giving you a glimpse into the local maritime culture. As the tides change, our journey then leads us to the stunning Arguin Bank and the majestic Dune of Pilat, where you can unwind and enjoy the tranquil environment.

This trip is highly customizable, allowing you to plan your route and perhaps end with a breathtaking sunset. Our boat comfortably accommodates up to 9 passengers and ensures a gentle and peaceful ride.
