«Cap-Ferret and its basin, in Aquitaine, speak to me because
we are in the middle of 200 million oysters. And at low tides we can walk on the bottom of the sea. We walk on the primordial soup. It is a real place with real people like oyster farmers. I feel connected to this world. It is a vacation place, but I never actually take vacations, I always draw. It is just the level of concentration that changes.
“In Cap-Ferret I can work peacefully and indulge in a few temptations, like cycling in the forest and in the village or taking my mini sailboat called ‘moi’ and sailing on the basin. One day my wife and I were enjoying the sunset at the Banc d’Arguin when, seeing a flock of eider ducks on the sand, we decided that our daughter’s middle name would be Eder.”
Cap-Ferret
And Grand Piquey Sea Counter you can find everything related to sailing. The puff pastry brioche from the pastry shop Frédélian. The Hortense’s Cabin for oysters. A classic. TheSturgeon farm It is the kingdom of Perlita caviar. The Ferret Cork for lunches and dinners at any time of the year. Festive dinners from Sail Fish. The restaurant Wharf has a great selection of wines. The specialty of Edward’s Cabin it’s the view of the Bassin d’Arcachon. On the other side of the bay, in Pyla-sur-Mer, there are two hotels that I renovated: The Co(o)rniche e Ha(a)itza with The Family Pastry Shop. The last arrival, My Daughter’s Pastry Shop I highly recommend Arcachon.
