Between, lake, beach and forests, sand dunes and moorland, come and stay at Les Grands Pins Yelloh! Village and immerse yourself in the joys of sliding sports. Set off for a land at the crossroads of the regional gastronomies, surrounded by the Médoc vineyards, and a few miles from Bordeaux, the world capital of wine and good food.
Capital of sliding sports, Lacanau boasts over 14 kilometres of immense white sandy beaches. Wide open spaces as far as the eye can see, gently-undulating sand dunes covered in beachgrass and great expanses of blue water all around! On the doorstep of the campsite, holiday-makers can of course practise surfing or body-boarding. Or swim under the watchful eye of the swimming instructors.
Lacanau Océan is a seaside resort with character and beautiful beaches rolled into one! We find its combination of surf, relaxation, golf, horse riding and casino is sheer delight. Come exploring on foot or bike twixt sea and forest or as far as the Étang de Cousseau nature reserve... Follow the discovery trail of the old seaside villas or opt for a night walk through the lively town.
The Lac de Lacanau offers 2,000 hectares to cycle on, or pine forest to be explored in a horse-drawn carriage. It delights anglers or sailing fanatics, and you can also practise such sports as kite-surfing and water skiing. Or enjoy a peaceful outing on a canoe or catamaran. Pretty little quiet wooded beaches all around, scattered with clumps of reeds. You'll find vast unspoilt spaces, discovery footpaths and delightful little picnic spots.
With its 2,300 hours of sunshine per year, Lacanau is renowned for its micro-climate. Below the 45th parallel and by the sea, its long hours of sunshine and its maritime influence mean warm temperatures throughout the year. Temperatures are extremely pleasant from Spring onwards, and the summers are very sunny, while remaining breezy. Late autumns are glorious.
Around 30 kilometres to the south lies the Arcachon basin - a "small landlocked sea"- and the Cap Ferret. Here, one's life is governed by the tides. The Ile aux Oiseaux (Bird Island), the "Cabanes Tchanquées" (oyster-farmer's houses on stilts), oyster ports such as the pretty village of L'Herbe, and the Banc d'Arguin at the mouth of the basin, opposite the highest sand dune in Europe - the dune du Pyla -, are all to be found here.
You'll be spellbound by the produce and unparalleled gastronomy stemming from our fertile land. At the crossroads of gastronomies from south-western France, this is a feast of flavours: from the sea: oysters, fish and seafood; from the land: the lamb from Pauillac, the beef from Bazas, the entrecote with marrow cooked on vine shoots. The seasonal flavours include cepes, truffles, foie gras and grapes, duck confits and magrets, local cheeses... In Aquitaine, culinary art is also an art of living. Discover the regional produce at the Lacanau-Océan market, open every Wednesday morning throughout the year.
Come and travel the "Route des Châteaux", for a voyage through the grands crus. Appellations d'Origine Contrôlée, Margaux, Saint Julien, or Pauillac, and over 700 crus await you with their cellars and prestigious estates, not forgetting the architecture of the chateaux and charterhouses borne of the vine. Tastings, tours of the cellars, discovering the vine: a whole world to discover.
The world capital of wine and good food, Bordeaux boasts a remarkable history and architecture. Sixty kilometres from the sea, it owes its fortune and its reputation to its port and its wines. At once proud and mysterious, Bordeaux smacks a little bit of England and a little of Spain. Take a stroll around Bordeaux to explore its hidden secrets. An 18th-century architecture, its history linked to that of its river, the Garonne, and to its quays, an amazing heritage, and an abundance of museums...
