This region of the Landes is a haven of peace for those who want to take the many cycle paths crossing the Landes forest or running along the coast from Moliets-et-Maâ to Soustons and from Seignosse to Ondres.
Famous seaside resorts follow one another all the way to the edge of the neighbouring Basque Country to the south: Messanges, Vieux Boucau Port d'Albret, Seignosse, Hossegor, Capbreton... Some are more family-friendly, others more "natural" and others even more trendy like Hossegor, a surfer's paradise with its famous wave forming above the Gouf de Capbreton (the pit).

We tested the Landes dolce vita for you, Moliets-et-Maâ !
Vieux Boucau could have sunk into oblivion after the Adour was diverted to Bayonne and the development of its abandoned port. But, with the tourist development of Port d'Albre and around the Messanges pond or Soustons, the town is experiencing a new lease of life.

Let’s go together to discover the Landes forest at Vieux-Boucau-les-Bains !
Soustons is a pretty little village with a slightly set-back market town and lovely access to the sea. There is a pond where you can take guided walks and also a courant (a coastal river).
The town is famous today because François Mitterrand stayed not far from there in the heart of the forest on his Landes farm in Latché for more than 30 years. A statue of him pays tribute to him at the entrance to Soustons in front of the Tourist Office.

Seignosse, Hossegor and Capbreton are three very close seaside resorts.
Seignosse is the most natural and less urbanized. Its environment favors large natural spaces. In this small village where the art of living is present whatever the season, there is a beautiful 6km wide beach with surf spots renowned for lovers of the swell. Perhaps this is the opportunity to take a course in Seignosse to learn how to tame the waves too?
In Seignosse, conviviality is a culture, which reaches its peak on August 15th during the " Casetas". It is a special moment when locals, associations and regular tourists meet around local products prepared on the plancha for a great moment of exchange and sharing...
Like its neighbour Hossegor, Seignosse cultivates its relationship with the surrounding nature.

Capbreton, more family-oriented and popular, is also the only port in the Landes which welcomes boaters all year round.
The port of Capbreton is a witness to very ancient fishing traditions. In the past, its sailors left it to go whale fishing, which made it an important trade.
The port jetty (photo below) is a testament to the age of the port facilities.
Today, the port has a capacity of nearly 1,000 rings, depending on the construction of new basins.
On the port, you can taste seafood products, which are plentiful here, by buying them at the fish market or in a local restaurant. One of the curiosities of Capbreton is the presence of a Gouf marine. This very deep fault is located not far from the entrance to the port. It allows you to find an unequalled wealth in the region of deep-sea fish, shellfish and crustaceans...

There are several things to discover in Capbreton:
The Landes Guide’s favorites :
A small village set back from the ocean, but yet so close, Saint-Vincent-de-Tyrosse is a festive place in summer, bathed in Gascon culture. Take a stroll to discover a quiet place with a typical Landes heritage : fountains and wash houses, mills...
Rugby culture is strong in the village.
You will also find arenas that host ferias when it is the season. You are not far from the white and black ponds to admire the fauna and flora.
A few kilometers from the Basque Country, separated only by the Adour, there are Boucau and Tarnos. You are almost in Bayonne, in a few minutes by bike, you can enjoy the attractions of the Basque capital. But before, here too, there is a lot to do!
The town of Tarnos is located in the Pays de Seignanx. Situated on the Adour estuary, it has long benefited from industrial dynamism, with the creation of a large port. Today, we can enjoy a wetland rich in biodiversity, on the banks of the river. Stroll along the Tarnos dike which offers a very pretty view of the coast of the two departments. A wild beach delights holidaymakers and cyclists enjoy the Vélodyssée which passes through the town.
The Pays de Seignanx is rich in natural heritage inherent in its wild lakes. The Marais d'Orx Nature Reserve, for example, is a free site. It is a delight for migratory bird watchers. It is a beautiful place to explore on foot, in peace and quiet via a guided tour or a walking trail set up on footbridges. In Ondres, fishing ponds allow you to tease fish at the Etang du Turc and the Etang de Garros.
