Gironde is named after the estuary where the Garonne and Dordogne rivers meet. This vast stretch of water, 75 kilometres long and 12 kilometres wide, is the largest river estuary in Western Europe. The region’s largest city is Bordeaux, which boasts a vibrant city centre perfect for shopping, as well as a historic port. The Port de la Lune, or "Port of the Moon," has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2007 and is well worth a visit. Several campsites can also be found just outside Bordeaux, making the city easily accessible for camping enthusiasts.
