   Day 1 & 2: Capbreton / Hossegor - Pure surfing spirit

   Start your surftrip in a converted van in the heart of one of Europe's most emblematic spots: Capbreton and Hossegor. Here, the ocean lives in rhythm with the surfers, the trendy cafés and the pine forests that smell of escape. From the powerful waves of La Gravière to the more accessible sessions of La Sud, each spot offers an intense, wild and unforgettable experience. As night falls, enjoy the sound of aperitifs facing the Atlantic, and let yourself be carried away by the free and passionate atmosphere of this quintessential surfing region.

   Day 3: Seignosse / Soustons - Wild, vast, untamed

   Two villages, one spirit: that of a raw, unspoilt coastline, where every session becomes a timeless interlude. At Seignosse, the white sandy beaches stretch as far as the eye can see and the waves roll in steadily for riders of all abilities. A few kilometres away, Soustons invites you to slow down, between morning sessions and paddle rides on the lake. Between ocean and nature, this stopover is an ode to freedom, ideal for travellers seeking a balance between adrenalin and idleness.

Here, time slows down, the sunsets are magical, and van camping takes on its full meaning, close to the elements. A gentle, untamed stopover to recharge body and soul before continuing the adventure.

It's the perfect place for a series of surf sessions, exploring the cycle paths through the pine forests, or simply chilling out by the water. With its accessible spots and relaxed atmosphere, Biscarrosse is the perfect combination of thrills and lifestyle. Sleeping in a van by the beach, waking up to the sound of the pines, board under your arm: here, life is simple, beautiful and terribly addictive.

   Day 8 & 9: Cap Ferret - Between wild ocean and gentle basin

   Cap Ferret is the perfect blend of raw nature and understated elegance. On one side, the ocean beaches with their powerful waves offer surfing sessions full of character. On the other, the Bay of Arcachon, peaceful and luminous, invites contemplation. In a van, you can explore the oyster-farming villages, enjoy oysters with your feet in the sand, and fall asleep lulled by the iodised air. Cap Ferret is a timeless stopover for surfing, slow living and breathtaking scenery.
