OCEAN NEWS

While the Atlantic Ocean thrills, Lacanau Lake offers a moment of absolute calm. A few minutes by bike from the campsite, the Moutchic spot reveals flat, translucent water, bordered by fine sand and reeds. Here, you can forget the waves and enjoy a more intimate and wild atmosphere. Hire a paddleboard or canoe to explore the secret coves, where the forest seems to plunge directly into the water. Between dips, settle down in the shade of the pine trees for a nap or an impromptu picnic.

Leave your car behind during the holidays. The legendary Vélodyssée cycle route passes right by the campsite, opening up the Médoc forest to you. Cycle in the cool shade of the pine trees, lulled by the scent of resin and the tranquillity of nature.

The route offers a variety of pleasures without any effort. To the south, the track leads gently to Moutchic for a break by the lake. To the west, it takes you directly to the warm sand of Lacanau-Océan.

Lacanau has that special energy you find in wide open spaces where you feel small in the face of the Atlantic. Here, surfing isn't just about performance, but about enjoying the salt water and the sun beating down on the dunes.

We like to set off early, when the mist is still rising from the water and the wind is calm. It's the ideal time to get in the water, far from the hustle and bustle, and enjoy the pure sensation of gliding. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced surfer, our beaches offer sandbanks for all levels.
