Plage de Meyraguet
La Plage de Meyraguet extends along the Dordogne River in Aquitaine, a few kilometers from Lacave, in the southwestern Massif Central. This section of the river valley is characterized by limestone cliffs overlooking the winding river, creating a landscape of wooded gorges typical of the Périgord region. The site is part of a succession of alluvial beaches lining this major tourist area, where the river widens into pools suitable for summer swimming. Adjacent to the left bank of the Dordogne, this beach occupies a natural recess of the river, just 100 meters from Beach Lacave 1. Unlike the more developed facilities located 2.6 kilometers downstream, it retains a discreet and less dense character. The typical alluvial substrate of the Dordogne banks forms the swimming area, where sandy and gravelly deposits from seasonal floods accumulate. The absence of supervision and facilities makes it a place for local use rather than mass tourism, offering direct access to a calm stretch of the river. No structured facilities are reported on site. Swimming is unsupervised, and access for people with reduced mobility is not guaranteed. The Blue Flag status does not apply to this area. In the immediate vicinity, the Port de Creysse and Plage du Port, 6.4 kilometers away, offer more formalized conditions for swimmers.
About this spot
Meyraguet derives its name from the old cultivated lands that bordered the Dordogne before the tourist development of the 20th century. The Lacave area gradually developed around the exploitation of prehistoric caves and river navigation, transforming the banks into summer relaxation spots. From the 1960s onwards, the alluvial beaches of this stretch became essential stops for canoeists and vacationing families, attracting generations of swimmers who descended the river in traditional boats. This beach remains a relic of this more organic patronage, predating water parks and mass leisure infrastructure.
