Longer hikes in the Camargue are only for the hardy.
There is hardly any shade, temperatures can reach 40° in summer. Anyone who is out and about here should remember to bring good sun protection and plenty of water. It is also a good idea to bring binoculars to get a closer look at the diverse flora and fauna.

Many flamingos can be seen in the nature reserve and can also be observed in flight. Just terrific to look at so freely in their natural habitat.
The many channels characterize the picture here.
The beach at the Golfe de la Beauduc …

In revival of our 80s (just 40 years later 😄) we were in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer for the second time today and from there we went on a hike to the Camargue. Now in June the little village was still quite tranquil, but you can't imagine what goes on here in midsummer from …

Our last day in St. Maries.
A grand spectacle outside our windows: the Fete du Cheval (Cheval Festival). Today, it's all about horses and riders. We watch for a while from our prominent spots, then turn our backs on the hustle and bustle and head out to the Plage Sauvage beach in the east of town for one last dip …

Actually, the Camargue wasn't on our plan at all, but the sun and 15 degrees were tempting. From our place we hear the sound of the sea and in the evening we took a short walk in the nature park. At this time you are almost alone there. Unfortunately, there wasn't too much bird life to see, but we were …
