The ocean surfing beaches at Biscarrosse Plage are approximately 15 minutes drive away, where surf schools are available.
The dune de Pilat is a 20 min drive and gives amazing views over the Basson D'Arcachon..well worth the many steps to the top!

There is a specially constructed cycle track around the lake, and many cycle paths through the forests as well as long rides for serious cyclists.
You can eat oysters in Arcachon, and taste the wine in St Emilion and the Medoc. Sample the shopping in historic Bordeaux, (a UNESCO World Heritage site) with its newly pedestrianised streets, and magnificent floodlit architecture provides the more cultural attractions. To the south lie the surfing beaches of Mimizan Plage ; Biarritz, with its associations with the 1930's jet set; and picturesque St. Jean de Luz. Or you could pop over the border to Spain, and visit beautiful San Sebastien, the capitol of the Basque country.
