Commune verte, Argelès-sur-Mer compte plus de 8000 pins centenaires dont 2000 dans le bois des pins. C’est en 1854 que la commune prend l’initiative de planter une pinède de 12 ha en front de mer. Plus de 160 ans après, le bois des pins est toujours le poumon vert d’Argelès et le symbole de la station. Les Argelésiens et les touristes aiment s’y promener ou y pique-niquer. Dans les années 30, le bois des pins accueille le premier camping municipal. Afin de préserver le renouvellement des espèces, la ville a entrepris des régénérations successives (1978, 1981, 1984) en replantant 1500 pins. Afin de préserver la pinède, les replantations sont un panachage de pin parasol et de pin maritime.
