I was there last summer, there were a quite bit more people there then on the photo. It’s a popular beach during the summer season.

I’ve been to the top of this amazing not-just-a-sand dune quite a few times. When the tide is out the view is completely different from when the tide is in. It’s difficult to get a feel for the danger the fishermen experience with the change of tides until you’re on top of the dune. The area through which the water exits (and enters, of course!) is really quite small, making it treacherous for the unprepared. And if you should miss your opportunity to get back in before the tide goes out… you’re stuck for awhile!

Pah! From a great height I speet on it.

Have you seen Chesil Beach? ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chesil_Beach )

It’s a Tombolo of similar size, made entirely of what appears to be small, grey, fossilised potatoes.

Please, this is ‘Arcachon’ and not ‘Arachon’…
In the same style you can check about La Mer de Sable in France.

I think it looks great where it is now. So just visit France and enjoy it in situ.
