This is an easy ride and if your staying in or around Arles it’s definetly worth booking this in as a day trip. Roads are good but in summer there is a lot of tourist traffic, cyclists, bird watchers and hippy naturalists out to save nature by growing dreadlocks and not washing.

Camargue - on the road

Still, the Parc Naturel Régional de Camargue covers 820 km² that are some of the wildest and most protected lands in all of Europe and seems to have a sort of mini-culture seperate to Provence. Worth doing once.

D453 outside Arles

Saint-Maries-de-la-Mer is worth a stop, dating back to at least the 4th century AD it has some beautiful buildings, however the population jumps from 2,500 in winter to 50,000 in summer, so if you want to stay overnight then book well in advance.
