As the biggest département in France, the Gironde offers a multitude of interests: the ocean, the highest dune in Europe, bicycle paths in the forests of pines, the biggest lake in France, the biggest forest in Europe (shared with the Landes), the famous oysters of the Arcachon Basin and of course the biggest AOC wine-producing vineyards in the world.
