Hello!
We have perfect weather for canoeing on the river… not too
hot, a slight breeze and blue skies and sunshine. If you want to take a boat out on the river,
there are plenty of choices. Castillon
Rowing club, between the 2 bridges.
Pessac on the Quayside and at Ste Foy, on the road out to Le Fleix.
So, what are you waiting for, put on a hat, slap on the sun
screen and head off for the river. Look
out for swans, herons, kingfishers and swallows, and that’s just some of the
wildlife on the river.
Whatever you do, have a great time in the Gironde and
Dordogne regions.
Best wishes,
Helen
