Le Cap-Ferret , a mosaic of villages enlivened with soul From Claouey to La pointe, each village on the peninsula displays a strong personality and an art to live clean.
The North of the peninsula enjoys easy access compared to Bordeaux. Its border coastline is dotted with fishing villages that live at the mercy of the tide. Culture oyster is very present there but the trade also holds a good place there through supermarkets but also small typical markets.
Going down south , the Canon represents the main pole of attraction between Claouey and the center of Cap-Ferret. Its advantages ? It enjoys a nucleus of varied shops and an area important residential. The Vallons du Ferret form a vast island of rather beautiful villas Recent. A little further, the Grass Village deploys - around its emblematic dune - forests, firebreaks and a small beach with old-fashioned charm. Formed by a single street that runs along the sea, the small village has also kept a timeless aspect. The Hotel de la Plage is there mine to stay in its juice, small fisherman's houses nearby. On the other side of the Villa Algerian seaside hosts magnificent villas whose gardens bathe feet in water.
La Vigne and its marina herald the entrance to Cap-Ferret. This is the place of predilection for water sports enthusiasts. At the end of the day, we attend the broom of fishing boats. After years of lethargy, the new, renovated port now promises to reconnect with the festive tradition that has long animated it.
Here we passed El Palomar , then the beach of the Americans ... crossing the rails of the little train signs the entrance to the village of Cap-Ferret. Bars, restaurants, fashion boutiques, of decoration and shops of all stripes welcome the summer visitor. Beneath this abundance of beating facade the heart of Cap-Ferret… somewhere around its market. High place of finds and reunion, it is animated by an atmosphere mixing "show off" and good humor.
This fleeting feeling of urbanity is erased as we advance towards La Pointe. This place where the Presquile ends in the sea unfolds secret charms that can be left discover by taking the rough roads of the 44 hectares. Wild, secret and authentic, the Pointe is an enclave in the enclave. We live there with the noise, the salt and the wind of the sea. It offers the one who loves it the ultimate luxury of the choice between the oil sea of the Basin and the furious assaults from ocean waves.
To tourists, Paris sometimes reserves its face as a museum city, sometimes that of a noisy and polluted megalopolis. To its inhabitants, it shows a much more friendly face. For those who know how to choose the area that suits them, it offers a great quality of life. It is often enough to move away from the main arteries to find the ambiance of a village in Paris. This is the Paris we love!
Let's start with the center, which is no longer a concept but a reality which now links the first four arrondissements under the name "Center de Paris". The Opera, the Louvre, the Town Hall, the Royal Palace, the Place des Vosges ... sit there. A stone's throw from these sacred monsters, the Place des Petits-Pères, the Rue de la Corderie, the Place Sainte-Catherine or the Enfants-Rouges market display their special atmosphere. We know each other between neighbors, we find each other with friends! And once Fashion Week or Maison & Objet are over, we can enjoy it quietly.
Yes, yes, you can also park there, even if the use of the car seems to belong to the last century.
Now let's take a big leap south and cross the Seine. Along the river, imposing buildings preserve the secrets of the other bank. The Hôtel de la Monnaie, the Conciergerie and the Musée D'’Orsay… so many sacred monsters that you have to go around to discover Saint Germain and the Latin Quarter. Do you like art galleries, antique dealers, bookstores and churches? You’re in the right place to enjoy a bohemian vibe and a touch of the brain.
Let's continue with a little walk a little further north. Once past the border of the Grands Boulevards, a bubbling Paris - mercantile and busy - is revealed. There reigns the commercial atmosphere of the department stores and the chain of signs which form its procession. Adjoining this temple of shopping that is the 9th district, its neighbor the 10th is just as quasi-thematic. If you plan to get dressed, go your way! If your pleasures are those of good food, then you've come to the right place. It is here, in a popular and friendly atmosphere that Parisian bistronomy has installed most of its districts. If the daytime atmosphere is rather peaceful, it keeps people waiting for evening to come to life with a myriad of small restaurants that seem to take part in a creativity competition on a daily basis. We enjoy it on every street corner.
We are sensitive to the exceptional quality of life that these central districts of Paris offer, but also to the surprises and the change of scenery that the side roads hold. Paris is a kaleidoscope of atmospheres and sensations that we also discover and appreciate while deviating from the beaten track!
