La Palissade

The Camargue road runs south between the embanked Rhône and the salt-pans. Where the road leaves the river stands the La Palissade estate, a museum displaying flora and fauna from the Camargue. There are exhibitions, slide shows, a herbarium and and aquarium. The road ends near the Plage de Piemançon, a broad beach of fine sand with no tourist facilities, forming the eastern end of the Golfe du Lion.
