Biscarosse

A short walk to discover the charming town of Biscarosse.

Biscarosse is a pretty city located in the Landes along the Atlantic coast. This town is the biggest in surface of the Landes, it is moreover cut out in 3 zones: Biscarrosse-Bourg, Biscarrosse-Plage and Biscarrosse-Lac, There is more than 7 km between the beach and the lake, you cannot really go from the beach to the lake on foot, the bicycle is a good way of displacement. In this walk we used the car to go from the lake to the beach. The presence of the lakes and the ocean is a real plus for this town.

The shores of the lake

The shores of the lake — There are many, many small beaches that are very nice for swimming. It is quite funny, the slope of the lake is very low, you will have to walk a long way before finding enough water to swim.
