Ile d'Arcins is the closest island to Bordeaux. Located 6 km from the centre of Bordeaux, it is also one of the only islands in the Garonne and the estuary to be visited
Of elongated shape, it stretches over 2 kilometres and is spread over 37 hectares. Farmed until the war, the island then belongs to INRA. It is then one of the main places of experimentation in France for the improvement of certain plant species. The average temperature is two degrees higher than on land and it hardly ever freezes
During the 1999 storm, the island was completely flooded and the buildings were too deteriorated to be repaired. The INRA then decided to sell the island to a private individual who wanted to turn it into a natural park and open it to the public.
