The ETANG de VACCARÈS
Location: the hert of Camargue.

This saline lake is a natural reserve. Although the Etang de Vaccarès is the Camargue's biggest brine lake (some eight miles long, covering around 16,000 acres), at no point is it more than two and a half yards deep.

Known as La Grand Mar, it is surrounded by the Petit-Rhône and Grand-Rhône rivers, as well as the sea. It is a haven for animals and anyone passionate about nature and wildlife…
