A weekend in Les Landes
Located between the beautiful city of Bordeaux and the Basque Country and its rocky coastline, the southwestern coast of France is called Les Landes. It is an exceptional destination for beach lovers. Located close to the Bordeaux Airport, the region is accessible from the UK in about 2 hours.
Short breaks to Lacanau
Lacanau is one of the top resorts of the region. Located on the Atlantic Coast, north of the beautiful town of Arcachon, Lacanau Ocean (the name of the resort) boasts a 14 kilometres long beach with golden white sand. The beach is very popular with surfers: the waves are great and many international surfing competitions are held there. However, you won’t have to be a professional surfer to enjoy the waves since there are many surfing schools in Lacanau Ocean. The huge beaches and the warm weather make of Lacanau a top-selling destination for family beach breaks. Les Landes are also famous for their huge pine tree forests. A weekend in Lacanau is ideal to rent bicycles and discover the beauties of the forest and lake setting, since there are many cycle paths in the region. The nearby Reserve Naturelle de l’Etang de Cousseau is amazing to enjoy a bird watching trip. Golf lovers will also love the 18-hole golf course as well as the 2 9-hole courses set in this beautiful environment.
