Another day, another Legè-Cap-Ferret, France, secret revealed

Shhh! Jean is about to give us the low-down…

Jean was born in France but now lives in Sri Lanka. In this distriKt he shares what he calls his own “garden of Eden,” Legè-Cap-Ferret, a place he has been on many occasions. Thanks to Jean’s history and love-affair with Legè-Cap-Ferret, he is an ideal source of information for anyone interested in the Arcachon area!

He takes us through the quant village on Legè-Cap-Ferret, past the beaches, marshlands, and dune du Pyla, sharing his secrets of the headlands along the way. Jean loves this place so much he wakes up early in the morning to begin his day of roaming, starting off with a boat ride to a cluster of villas built over the water. Imagine living in a house that is essentially it’s own island…pretty nifty, right? For anyone with an interest in history, Jean has you covered, intermingling old shots of Legè-Cap-Ferret to compare with the photos he takes. According to Jean, little has changed, and that, to him, is a beautiful thing.

We greatly appreciate Jean’s willingness to share this “garden of Eden,” as it’s rare for someone to share their own precious secrets. And for that we can’t thank him enough!
