HOSSEGOR

COTE D'ARGENT, FRANCE
THE WAVES
Ideal for everyone from complete beginners to experts. Surfers head here from all over the world for the late-summer swells, and several pro contests are held locally each year. Crowds can usually be avoided by travelling away from the main breaks.

WHEN TO GO
August to October for warm water; Spring to avoid the crowds.

ON DRY LAND
Villages and lakes leading up to the Côte d'Argent to the north; to the south, the historical Basque city of Bayonne, and the elegant resort of Biarritz. Inland, the Pyrenees visible from the coast are great for walking and mountain biking.
