Went to this beach last summer found it to be very pleasant. Not much in the way of facilities but the beach was really nice as was the sea. Anyone else been?
We have been to the coast west of Bordeaux on many occasions since the 1980s. Its an excellent wide sandy beach with miles of woodland and excellent waves for surfing/ bodyboarding. There is generally so much space that you just walk until you feel comfortable stripping off.
Totally agree with you Brian. I found the atmosphere of the beach to be very relaxed. The distinction between the textile and naturist area was very blurred and there were many groups which were a mixture of the two. So I think it would be a good clothes optional beach for those with partners who prefer not to bare all.
Morning folks,
From the mouth of the river Gironde to the Spanish border is naturist away from the main entrances to the beaches ,some 125 miles . The atlantic rollers keep the beach washed and the breeze off the sea ensures it does,nt get too hot, well not as hot as the Med anyway which suits this northern lad just fine , and not too many mozzies either.
