    Amazing Customer Service. We wanted to hire two paddle boards to take onto the lake to commemorate my parents, after an absence of 35 years of being in Sanguinet. I used to come as a kid and wanted to show my wife where I spent my summers. We were advised to maybe comeback on a different day as the weather would be better, so we took the advice and the lake was so calm and beautiful. It could not have been any better. X Thank you so so much for your brilliant service. We will never forget this day. 🌞 ❤️

    We chose the 10 km kayak route crossing the Arcachon basin. It was a first for us as a family with a 7 year old child. A superb experience that I recommend to everyone. Special mention for our guide who was able to put us at ease and teach us a lot about this beautiful region. To do without hesitation!
