Lège-Cap-Ferret

Lège-Cap-Ferret extends along a peninsula between the Atlantic Ocean and Arcachon Bay, featuring beaches, forests, and sandy dunes across 193 square kilometers.

The commune evolved from small fishing settlements to become an administrative center, marking a significant transformation in the Gironde department's coastal development.

Local fishermen maintain traditional oyster farming practices in Arcachon Bay, supplying fresh seafood to restaurants and markets throughout the region.

The municipal administration provides digital services for residents to manage school meals, transportation, and construction permits through an online platform.

The area contains multiple distinct villages spread across the peninsula, each maintaining separate identities while sharing the same administrative governance.
