Events

The lighthouse on Patiras island has been guided shippings for over 100 years. It has been restored by its present owners, the Conservatoire du Littoral, and offers an amazing view from the middle of the estuary, embracing the right and left banks and recounting the history of the islands. Landing and tours are free 4 days per year - you just pay for the crossing cruise from Blaye.

We leave the wines and take you to discover the whisky of the Estuary. From Bordeaux, take the direction of the island of Patiras with a guide on board. On site, meet Benoît Vielet, barley farmer for Moon Harbour. Take advantage of the unique view offered by the Patiras lighthouse before boarding for a return sailing at the end of the day around a tasting on board.

Take part in an original summer evening aboard the boat LES DEUX RIVES. Accompanied by a relaxed music, you will sail between the meanders of the Dordogne river to join the banks of the castle of Vayres. Every 15th August a fireworks display is fired at 10:30pm in the castle garden overlooking the river. A wine tasting is offered on board by the "Maison des Vins de Vayres".
