Are you talking about La Camargue? It is the estuary of the Rhone River and it is where they raise the little black bulls used for bull fighting in Provence where they do not kill the bull. They also raise white horses that are brown until they are about four years old, then turn white. Flamingos migrate from Africa and can be seen during certain times of the year. It is a very interesting area where one could easily spend a couple of days. Arles would make a good base for visiting La Carmarthen as well as other parts of Provence.
