Gironde is a current region in Auitaine, It is well known for the Côte d'Argent beach which is Europe's longest, attracting many surfers to Lacanau each year. It is also the birth place of Jacques-Yves Cousteau who studied the sea and all forms of life in water.
Having the advantage of both sea and mountains, the Pyrénées-Atlantiques offer a great variety of places of interest to discover. The mountains are great for biking, as well as the seaside resorts on the coastal area.
