Mas-Thibert joined the Camargue Regional Nature Park in 2011. In the 1960s, a Harki (Algerian soldier who fought alongside the French during the Independence War) community settled in the village, which has now become one of the largest communities of harkis in France. Crossed by the ViaRhôna, the bike path connecting the Swiss Alps to the Mediterranean sea, the village is the only existing cycling stopover between Arles and Port-Saint-Louis. Having the Marais du Vigueirat, a protected nature site of the Conservatoire du littoral (Coastal protection agency) at a few kilometers from the village allows visitors to discover the local natural heritage.
