Sierra de las Nieves
Rugged limestone peaks of the Andalusian mountains immediately after departure.
Bay of Biscay
Deep blue waters contrasted against the rugged northern Spanish and western French coasts.
Dune of Pilat
The tallest sand dune in Europe, visible as a massive golden strip near Arcachon, France.
