Surroundings : Between the forest of Landes and the ocean of Arcachon Bay

Bordered by an immense forest and Sanguinet Lake, choose the Lou Broustaricq Campsite as your next destination.

A real paradise for surfers, Landes combines the pleasures of the beach and the ocean with the natural attractions of the forest and the lakes.

In this region where nature inspires admiration, with the Dune du Pilat and the birds at Arcachon Bay, amateurs of culture will not be left out with tours rich in history such as in Bordeaux where the many châteaux extend into the vineyards of Médoc.

And taste the many flavourful culinary specialties of Landes as well as the various spirits produced in the region.

Indeed, the 4-star Lou Broustaricq Campsite is in a very central location for tours to the most important and interesting tourist sites in Landes.

The lake close by is great for swimming, sailing, fishing, kayaking, pedal-boating, wind-surfing, Hawaiian canoeing or paddle-boarding. If you prefer sea sports, you can go to Biscarosse Beach, 30 minutes away from the Lou Broustaricq Campsite, for surfing, wave rafting, and waterskiing. This region with its gentle landscape is greatly appreciated by visitors who like to hike through the woods or bike around. Close by is La Teste de Buch racecourse and a horseriding centre at Biscarosse. A karting track and an acrobranch course are also some of the options appreciated by sports lovers.

In the area, don’t forget to explore the charming coastal town of Biscarosse (20 km), with its shops, stalls and terraces. There is also a big amusement park here – ideal for the family or among friends – and a seaplane museum.

To the North, at Arcachon (20 km), you must go there to admire the birds of the Bay as well as the Dune du Pilat (the largest dune in Europe) which is also worth the trip. Fans of a rich historical past will not be left out with places like Bordeaux and the many châteaux scattered throughout Médoc.

Take advantage of your stay or your holiday to taste the flavourful gourmet dishes of Landes and to sample some of the delicious spirits produced in this region. Some holiday-makers make their stay an opportunity to visit the Armagnac Cellar, to tour the Landes de Gascogne Regional Nature Park and to discover other beaches on the Atlantic coast.
