What to do around Soulac-sur-Mer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is no shortage of things to do around Soulac-sur-Mer. Head north first, towards Le Verdon-sur-Mer and Pointe de Grave: panoramic views of the Gironde estuary and the ocean, blockhouses and coastal paths. This is also where boats depart for the Cordouan lighthouse, known as the “Versailles of the sea” and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site: a memorable excursion at low tide, with a climb to the top for a 360\u00b0 view. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fancy a trip across the water? Hop on the Le Verdon\u2013Royan ferry for a day on the other side of the estuary: Belle \u00c9poque seafront, promenades, and beautiful walks to the troglodytic cliffs of Meschers (depending on your schedule). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To the south, Vendays-Montalivet charms visitors with its surfing culture, long beaches and large market (open daily in summer) where you can sample oysters, local produce and M\u00e9doc wines. Cyclists will enjoy the kilometres of shaded paths along the V\u00e9lodyss\u00e9e (EuroVelo 1), which connect Soulac, Le Verdon and Montalivet through pine forests and dunes: ideal for families, with multiple bike rental companies. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In the hinterland, follow the M\u00e9doc Castle Route (Saint-Est\u00e8phe, Pauillac, Margaux): visit the estates for cellar tours and tastings (remember to book). <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Finally, sprinkle your stay with little pleasures: surfing or bodyboarding sessions, horse riding on the beach, sunsets on the beaches of Am\u00e9lie or La Na\u00efade, and gourmet stops at the oyster huts on the estuary.
