Exploring the south-east Biscay Coastline by Peter Cumberlidge (extract)

Our starting point, the friendly port of Capbreton, lying ten miles to the north of its famous neighbour, has traditional seaside delights near the sands and genteel leafy suburbs fiirther inland. Unfurling like a length of silver ribbon along the coast, the seemingly endless beach is dotted with surfers who gyrate from dawn to dusk. Capbreton's pleasant yachting and fishing harbour boasts a venerable timber pier ? the Estacade ?which has survived countless winter storms virtually unscathed. Its marina, Port des Landes, has excellent facilities in attractive surroundings and is sheltèred from the Atlantic swell. Venture a little way south?east to find the town centre, which boasts a friendly upmarket atmosphere.

In this low, flat corner of France it's easy to get around by bike. Cycling north towards the small town of Hossegor we discovered a gracious tidal lake, which can also be reached by dinghy from the harbour along a straight stretch of canal. It runs parallel to the coast half a mile in from the dunes. Mansions overlook this peaceful expanse and the area exudes quiet prosperity. We admired the flamboyant 1920s Bascolandais architecture, then took our tune exploring the rest of the ares, with its lush greenery and nurnerous golf courses.
