The Camargue is a natural region located south of Arles, France, between the Mediterranean Sea and the two arms of the Rhône delta.
Covering an area of over 930km2 The Camargue is western Europe's largest river delta.
It is a vast plain comprising large brine lagoons or étangs, cut off from the sea by sandbars and encircled by reed-covered marshes. These are in turn surrounded by a large cultivated area. A haven for wild birds.
Its brine ponds provide one of the few European habitats for the greater flamingo. The marshes are also a prime habitat for many species of insects. The eponymous white horses horses (Camarguais) roam the extensive marshlands, along with semi-ferral Camargue cattle.
In 2008, it was incorporated into the larger Parc Naturel Régional de Camargue.
Cultivated land in the area includes rice paddies and salt pans.
