Biscarrosse lies less than an hour south west of Bordeaux, just under two hours North of Biarritz. Two large freshwater lakes ten minutes inland of the coast give this area a great range of watersports whatever the weather; flat and you can wakeboard, windy kitesurf and in the unlikely event that its neither there is always the Atlantic surf.
The lakes lie surrounded by the pine forests of the region North and South of the town of Biscarrosse, made up of ‘ville’, ‘plage’ and ‘lac’.
Continue further North and you will follow many secluded surf and kitesurf beaches up towards Arcachon and the famous Dune D’Pyla, Europes largest sand dunes.
Biscarrosse ville boasts many good restaurants and cafes such as our favourite steak house ‘Gargantua’ to more traditional meals such as pizza, Thai and of course sea food. However, most of the nightlife will be found at the plage mimicking similar tastes but housing all the bars and clubs! A real surf town.
