A small courant mouth between Mimizan and Saint-Girons, and one of the quietest stops on the Landes coast — a single car park, a lighthouse and not much else. The stream feeds a sandbar that can hold a decent left on a mid-period W swell. Uncrowded outside July and August, and a good fallback when Hossegor is maxed out and mobbed.
