When we talk about La Palmyre, we first think of its zoo, one of the most renowned in Europe and the most beautiful in France, with 1,600 species on 18 hectares. But La Palmyre also has kilometers of fine sandy beaches, from the tip of the Grande Côte to the bay of Bonne-Anse, and a Côte Sauvage popular with surfers.
La Palmyre, created next to the town of Les Mathes, is bordered by the La Courbe national forest, a 5,000-hectare “green lagoon” populated with holm oaks and maritime pines.
For an exceptional view of the D'Arvert peninsula, the Côte Sauvage and the Gironde estuary, climb the 300 steps of the 64-metre-high Courbe lighthouse.
