Oceanic destination par excellence, the Landes, a department in southwestern France, easily attract nature lovers seeking a tan and waves in Aquitaine. With its miles of fine sandy shores on the Atlantic coast, the region is particularly famous for its surf spots, especially in Capbreton and the famous town of Soorts-Hossegor, which is home to the French water sports federation in question..
The beaches of the Landes are also an exception in Europe because they are actually made up of a single huge beach: the longest on the continent that stretches along the entire coastline, along 106 kilometers. Divided into a dozen "sub-beaches", each spa resort in the department can develop its own tourist activity. Those that have not yet been affected by humans are wild spaces bordered by dunes that generally welcome bathers in search of tranquility, surfers or naturists.
In the Landes, naturism is tolerated in almost all places where bathing is not supervised, but the greatest caution is required with regard to waves as well as potentially dangerous currents and possible drifts in the absence of water. It all depends on the experience you are looking for, but for family vacations, dedicated and patrolled naturist beaches are recommended..
Although spaces for official and safe naturism are rarer in the Landes, they are not non-existent.
