By public transport

Don’t have a car to get around, or prefer to leave it behind while you’re on vacation?

Here are some ideas for discovering the Basin in a different way.

By Train

The train is a great way to get around the Sud Bassin, thanks to the TER Bordeaux Arcachon line. Our commune is fortunate to have 2 stations: Gujan-Mestras (main station) and La Hume.

Getting here is quick and easy: La Hume / Arcachon in 8 minutes on the TER with a Baïa ticket for €1 (€2 in summer), on sale at the Tourist Office.

From Bordeaux: around 60 daily round-trips by TER or TGV.

Journey time: between 40 and 45 minutes

From Paris: direct line Paris-Arcachon with the TGV INOUI

Journey time: less than 3 hours
