Vacations in Biscarrosse: the perfect blend of sport and nature.

Come and discover Biscarrosse! Here's a detailed description of this dream vacation spot for families, couples and friends. Zoom in on "Bisca", the setting for your campsite at Biscarrosse Slow Village! You'll be immersed in an atmosphere that's both peaceful and dynamic, and your stay with these Biscarrosse activities will be like no other and will linger long in your memory. Don't forget your camera!

Biscarrosse, the calm of the lake and the energy of the beach

The pretty seaside town of Biscarrosse is located on the Côte d'Argent in the Landes department. Spending your vacation in Biscarrosse is an ideal way to get away from it all! In fact, there are several lakes close to the town (Bisca and Parentis-en Born in particular) and Biscarrosse plage is also bordered by the Atlantic Ocean. It's ideal for alternating between the energy-filled waves of the ocean and the serenity of the lake.

What's more, you can try your hand at a wide range of water sports including surfing, paddleboarding on the lake or cycling to explore the trails around the lakes. Biscarrosse is a popular destination for both amateur and professional surfers.

Couples with young children will appreciate the calm of the lake, whose beaches are sometimes bordered by playgrounds or have a water play area and all the necessary facilities (toilet, shower). For example, the "Montéou Pipiou" beach between Biscarrosse and Parentis-en-Born. When you're a young parent, or simply want to be more comfortable, it's handy to have all the amenities close at hand!
