And in fact is nothing but the Duna has always existed. It was formed during the seventeenth century when a large amount of sand (sand abnormal?) Accumulated, focusing, in this stretch of coast of Gironde, France. Now this anomaly was embedded within the circuit of the Grand National site, a project of preservation and tourism development of the major areas of natural interest of the country.

Maybe you can also decide to stop in camping near the Duna of Pyla, the ebrezza trying to stay in a place that in about 40 years will be completely submerged by sand; because the dunes have the bad habit of moving, and this makes it to pace of 3.4 metres per year.
