The HolidayHourtin homes lie at the hart of Médoc, between vast pine forests, the largest natural lake in France and the Atlantic Ocean.

The Atlantic influences the climate and weather is temperate and mild compared to surrounding areas. Summers can be very hot and sunny. With its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean, nights tend to cool down and mosquitos are rare. The area benefits from regular termic afthernoon winds, perfect for kite-surfing, windsurfing, sailing and catamaran.

The town features a traditional village, a lake side and a ocean side:

Hourtin and Carcans share the biggest natural freshwater lake in France. Hourtin Port offers monitored beaches, children island, fishing, boat rental, sailing, surfing,… Equipment Rental is a 5 min walk.

"Iles au enfants" & its playground, a carefree childrens paradise, lies in front of the appartment and is perfect for walking, cycling, fishing and picknicking on the water’s edge. It has many activities (I Wake Park Hourtin, Splash Park) on offer for children and admission is free.

Fishing & sailing: licenses can be bought at the Port or online.

Cycling is a way of live in Hourtin. A great network of cycling tracks links the three resorts of Lacanau, Carcans-Maubuisson and Hourtin with the Atlantic Ocean and its dunes. More than 150km of cycle paths thrue the vast forest of Pines. On request you can use two adult bikes or rent at a 5min walk.

Mini-golf, Skate Park & Tennis is also a 5 min walk

We recommend the Food Market at Hourtin Bourg: enjoy fresh Oysters with a glas of wine every Tue, Thu and Sat morning
