Many French people left for the long Ascension weekend, Thursday May 26. Reservations are 17% higher than in 2019, before the health crisis. The seaside is widely used, from the Channel to the Mediterranean. The entire coastline is taken by storm.
Many French people were undoubtedly waiting for the Ascension Bridge, from Thursday, May 26, impatiently. To Martigues (Bouches-du-Rhone)there are dip lovers and those who prefer the hot sand to read. In Deauville (Calvados)there was a little less sun. “We came here for the young boy who runs by the water because he wanted to jump in the water. He’s going to throw himself into it and then me with it“, says a grandfather. “I wanted to come on stage in Deauville as a star because I just turned 60“, says a woman laughing.
On the rental side, many hotels are filling up. Tourists booked a long time ago. “VSIt’s been a while since the weekend is full at the room level and for the restaurant it woke up last week“says a hotel manager. For professionals in Gironde, the season promises to be exceptional.
