Un centre-ville animé, de très longues promenades aménagées pour les piétons comme pour les vélos, à proximité d'immense plages de sable fin et du seul port des landes... sont autant d'atouts, sans oublier deux spots bien connus des surfeurs. Laissez-vous charmer par cette cité marine !!! Le Camping Municipal la Civelle*** vous accueille dans un cadre idyllique à 1 km de la plage sur 11 hectares de pin et de chêne.

I have been taking my 5.5 yo daughter to the swimming lessons for 2 weeks. They do swimming lessons…read more(group and individual), beach camp for kids and surfing lessons. My review is for the swimming lessons. The good: If you miss a day (or more) the staff is always helpful to reschedule an other time or an other day on weekends. In 2011, the swimming teacher is/was Pierre. He has a great contact with kids. We liked his way of teaching swimming and my daughter is now completely autonomous in a pool. She can even do back stroke. Next year we are taking our youngest daughter (she is too young this year). In 2011, the staff is Nicolas (pool and beach camp) and Aurore (surfing). They are both very friendly and helpful. Swimming lessons start at 4 yo. Surfing lessons start at 6 yo. If you take a 10-day program you will get a discount. Start with 5-day program and if you like it the staff will apply the discount on the 2nd week. The not so good: The pool water is a bit cold. But they provide kids wetsuits (shorty). Summer 2011 was a bit rainy and cold, so I would guess pool water temp is usually warmer. The bad: None I can think of.
