Things to Do in Lacanau

Surf & Ocean

With its long beaches facing the Atlantic, Lacanau is one of France’s historic surfing destinations and hosts the famous Lacanau Pro every year.

Beginners and experienced surfers alike can enjoy a wide range of surf spots and surf schools. And for everyone else: swimming, endless sandy beaches and spectacular sunsets over the ocean.

3 Golf Courses Among the Pines

Ardilouse 18-hole course • Méjanne 9-hole course • 9-hole compact course

Beautiful courses winding through dunes and pine forest, where it’s not unusual to spot a few deer.

Golf clinics, lessons and competitions for all levels, from beginners to experienced players.

A Lake in the Heart of Nature

20 km² of freshwater surrounded by pine forest. Sailing, kitesurfing, wingfoiling, paddleboarding, water skiing or swimming: Lacanau Lake is a vast natural playground, just a few kilometres from the ocean.

Leave the Car, Hop on Your Bikes

At Le Bordelou, holidays are best enjoyed by bike. The ocean, beaches, lake, Lacanau town centre and cycle paths are all easily accessible through the pine forest. An extensive network of cycle paths lets you ride among the pines and make the most of Lacanau without getting back in the car.

Bordeaux & the Médoc Within Easy Reach

About an hour from Lacanau, discover Bordeaux, its heritage, riverside, and gastronomy, or explore the Médoc wine route, winding through vineyards and prestigious châteaux.

A perfect day trip before returning to the ocean and the tranquillity of Le Bordelou.
