This vast natural environment, located southeast of the Vaccarès site. They extend over more than 6,500 ha and include partly aquatic and terrestrial environments dominated by fresh water along the old arm of the Rhône, and partly extensive lagoon and dune complexes near the Mediterranean Sea. The successive advancement of the coastlines has created huge ranges of dune ridges on this site, which have gradually isolated some of the ponds and Etangs. Apart from the belts of dunes that cover more than 300 ha, the height of the Camargue is very often close to or below sea level. The vast areas without emerging vegetation, consisting of mud flats, etangs and brackish pools and more or less temporarily salted, cover more than 80% of the Camargue.
