Against the backdrop of 18C buildings, the Chartrons waterfront has been transformed, and is today a major feature of local life on the banks of the River Garonne. Following the conversion of the old port warehouses into cultural and commercial facilities, the people of Bordeaux have reconnected with their river and the simple joys of taking a turn here (by bike, on foot or rollerblades) while enjoying the fine views over port de la Lune. Don’t miss the Chartrons market near the Skate Park.
