Plage des Quinconces, Beach in Andernos-les-Bains, France

The Plage des Quinconces extends along the northern part of Arcachon Basin, offering beach areas and natural forest sections beside water.

In 1840, David Allègre established fish tanks near the beach, marking the beginning of local maritime development in the Andernos-les-Bains region.

The beach area maintains several traditional oyster farming spots, representing the maritime heritage of the Gironde coastal communities.

Visitors can access designated parking areas near the beach and find multiple walking paths connecting to neighboring coastal locations.

The site features preserved old fish tanks carved into rocks, demonstrating early nineteenth-century fishing methods along the French Atlantic coast.
