Blaye–Lamarque Ferry

Highlight • Rest Area

The Department of Gironde ensures the crossing of the estuary on the line: Blaye – Lamarque.
The crossing on the Sébastien Vauban amphidrom lasts around 20 minutes (between 15 minutes and 35 minutes depending on the tide) for a distance of 4.5 kilometers. It allows you to avoid a two-hour detour.
A ship ensures the crossing for 4 rotations per day in winter and 10 in summer.
Boarding :
For all modes of transport used (bike, car, etc.), the cost of the driver’s seat is not included. As of July 1, 2021, tonnage is limited to 3.5 tonnes on the Blaye-Lamarque crossing.

Port of Plassac

Highlight • Structure

The small port of Plassac is typical of the esteys of the Gironde estuary.
It is in the heart of the ancient village with a Gallo-Roman villa. A Terra Aventura route, combining hiking and discovery, allows you to get to know Plassac better. During your visit, you can also admire mosaics displayed in the alleys of the village: they were created by the inhabitants and by the Babylon Mosaic workshop-boutique.
A stepped earthen dike made it possible to shape the current configuration of the port, making it possible to create 44 places reserved for pleasure craft. A rocky groyne protects the entrance to the port. 22 gangways provide access to the boats and boaters can benefit from a water tap, electrical outlets and a light point. bbte.fr/equipements-de-loisirs/port-de-plassac

The citadel of Bourg overlooks the Dordogne. You can still see the facade of the old 18th century charterhouse that was built there, as well as a view of the river.

The Citadel of Bourg museum allows you to discover an impressive network of underground passages as well as a collection of horse-drawn carriages. Open daily between June and September.
