Nestling against an emerald forest,
caressed by the ocean, lined with endless fine sandy beaches and the 250 hectare
salt-water lake, Hossegor reflects the image of an old traditional welcome. This town,
chosen by so many artists in the past, has managed to comprehend and preserve its
ecological inheritance.
Nowadays, Hossegor is a very elegant town, which takes advantage of its heritage from the
past and is flexible with a view towards tomorrow. In the past, Hossegor was a theater of
traditional pastoral life and later praised as a paradise by an intellectual community
which formed a new and unique architectural style. From the meeting of the 2 cultures,
Basque and Landaise, was born a coastal resort which has managed to combine the two styles
perfectly. This resort has integrated its various types of accommodation among the
pine-trees and blended all with parks and gardens to form a perfect balance with the
original nature and beauty of the area.
Hossegor is situated in the heart of an international tourist center, where nature rhymes
with culture all year round, a place which lives on the rhythm of events, Classical Music
festival, Harley Davidson motor bike festival, Golf competitions, World surfing
championship competition, European kite festival, the Motocross Enduro on the beach and
the Hossegor Pelote Basque Open, plus a summer season in full swing where music of all
types drifts across the evening air.
The atmosphere in the Pubs, Piano bars, Cafes, Restaurants and Disco's are as in the rest
of the South of France, very friendly. The sports and leisure facilities will suit all
your wishes, Sporting-Casino, Swimming pool, Tennis clubs, Shopping, Marinas and 18 hole
golf courses to name but a few.
