The accommodation was great with a super friendly atmosphere among the staff and guests. Great place to hang out post surf. Nice dorms and bathroom.
A 10 minute walk to the nearby village.
Far from the beach, but since transport along with the gear was provided this wasn't an issue.
Delighted with my stay.
Thanks Michael, I'm very happy you enjoyed your stay with us. Have a great summer.
Had a chat with Paul about the conditions and what kind and surfing I wanted to do and he hooked me up with a board.
Transported us to and from the beach. When there he filled us in on the different breaks on the beach and gave us some advice.
Carefully picked which time we'd go each day to suit the conditions to the group, was appreciated as we went when we should rather than when would have been convenient.
We had a great time and learned a lot about France's waves, surfing, wheatgrass and Qi! It was great meeting everybody.
We provide Airport Transfers from and to Biarritz and they can be booked in the booking steps.

The beaches along the Hossegor and Capbreton coast stretch continuously north and south offering a huge choice of surf for everyone. Capbreton has 7 km of beaches starting at the busy side of town and extending south where sand dunes and pine forest merge gently with the incredible beauty of the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. The beaches by the main town are perfect for beginners and intermediate surfing standards
Across the harbour is the famous surf town of Hossegor, where European surfing really took off. The main stretch of beach, Plage Centrale and La Sud, beside the main promenade are great place to learn to surf in Hossegor. For those more experienced there's the opportunity to surf the breaks where the Worlds No.1 surfers duke it out every September in the World Championship Tour, the legendary La Nord and La Graviere.
The beaches reach Seignosse a few km’s north – here Les Bourdaines is perfect for longboarders, and Le Penon is a real quality beach break that’s a bit quieter and just as much fun. Further south is Biarritz with its classic waves and stunning cliffs. And down by St.Jean de Luz is Belharra, one of the worlds most impressive big wave surf spots.
