Cap Ferret, France
If you have the chance to go to Cap Ferret, there are so many wonderful things to do. You can start your day at the lighthouse of Cap Ferret, an iconic sight of the local coastal area. From here you can choose your own path, but for a bit of a cloudy day we recommend the following:
Cloudy Fall Day Outside
Chapel of the Algerian villa: This is a beautiful old chapel located in Cap Ferret which is an architectural gold mine. It is a sight to behold both inside and outside. If you have a chance, certainly go in to see the beautiful interiors. Just be mindful of the church service times so as to not bother parishioners.
Dune of Pilat: Take advantage of the clouds and head to the Dune of Pilat. While on most summer days the place is packed with tourists, in the fall the area is far clearer so you can take in the views uninterrupted and have space for yourself.
