Escape, nature and personal well-being... What if that was our credo for 2026?  <\/b>So to start the year off right, here is our winter to do list!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Take a moment for yourself
<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We know that the end of year celebrations can be a source of excess! To gently restore your body and mind, there's nothing like a good spa session<\/strong> In one of our thalassotherapy\/balneotherapy centers<\/a><\/strong> ! Between massages, beauty treatments and even aquagym<\/strong>, it\u2019s your well-being ally at the start of the year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Take a quiet walk in the forest or on the beach
<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At this time, the leaves have fallen<\/strong>, and only conifers proudly resist the fresh winds<\/strong>. This setting is perfect for a good walk in the forest, to collect pine cones<\/strong> (the \"pignes\" as we say back home!), or simply make the most of this natural setting in the calm of winter<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In winter, the Bassin ranges<\/a><\/strong> offer a whole new atmosphere: the azure blue of summer is replaced by purple colors, especially at the end of the day.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Take to the open sea by boat<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you do not yet know the colors of the Bassin in winter, start with a boat trip<\/a>,<\/strong> either pinnace (traditional boat) or featured<\/strong> !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once on the water, the immensity of the place and the feeling of being alone in the world are incredible. You will certainly come across a few birds (brent geese, etc.) resting on the oyster bed gables\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Change the year as you change your look <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After Christmas, there are other events that should not be missed: that of sales<\/strong> ! In Arcachon, but also in the decoration shops in Grand Piquey or even in the pretty shops of Bassin like in Andernos!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year's winter sales run from Wednesday 7 January to 3 February!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Exercise your brain <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Do you like puzzles and are you a team player? Immerse yourself in one of our Bassin Escape Games!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Oyster House:<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you know, the oyster is queen on the Bassin in Arcachon\u2026 But did you know that it even has its own Escape Game? The pitch :<\/strong> The Maison de l'Hu\u00eetre currently hosts the exhibition \u201cThe Oyster, the Pearl of Bassin\u201d <\/strong><\/a>the largest pearl in the world, Hurfana, is exhibited there. But the guardian in charge of protecting this priceless jewel has disappeared but it seems that he had time to activate the security system before his departure. Be careful, if the secure box in which the pearl is presented is not unlocked within the hour, it will be destroyed! Scrutinize, manipulate the objects on the game table and show ingenuity and logic... Team spirit and reflection will be significant assets for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On reservation on Tuesday and Friday evenings with 2 sessions: 7 p.m. or 9 p.m. Book and preferably no later than the day before at 05.56.66.23.71<\/p>\n\n\n\n
