| > An outstanding coastal area |
The Côte d'Argent has over 100 kilometres of ocean beaches, edged with sand dunes and protected by an immense pine forest. This outstanding area and its fragile environment need to be respected and protected.
The Landes coast, stretching from Biscarrosse in the north, to the mouth of the Adour in the south, is a gigantic window on the Atlantic, a paradise for all who love the beach and its myriad activities.
| > Do you prefer to be energetic or just relax on the fine sand ? |
There is plenty to do for everyone.
People who enjoy surfing, sand-yachting, and surf-casting, siestas, swimming, and sandcastles all share the beach amicably, under the benevolent but watchful eyes of the lifeguards.
| > Surfing : a Landes speciality |

The most enthusiastic, devoted beach-lovers are surfers and body-boarders, who find the best conditions for their sport on the Landes beaches.
