Come and see the biggest estuary in Western Europe. From the right bank with the limestone cliffs of Meschers, the Route de la Corniche and the citadel of Blaye to the Medoc shore with its famous vineyards and its chain of little known islets.
Discover the Basque country
In what was the ancient kingdom of Navarre, the Basque country is spread over both sides of the Pyrenees, French and Spanish. A strategic routeway between the north and the south, it has been attacked a thousand times. This may explain the distinctive character of the Basque people who have maintained their unique identity through the ages.
