Soorts-Hossegor

Few towns in Nouvelle-Aquitaine have a history as closely tied to the development of a 20th-century seaside resort as Soorts-Hossegor. On the Atlantic coast of Landes, the commune brings together long sandy beaches, pine forest and Lac d’Hossegor, a saltwater lake connected to the ocean. Its surf breaks have made Hossegor a recognised name in European surfing, while residential streets near the shore retain villas from the resort’s formative decades, often shaped by Art Deco and regional influences. The older settlement of Soorts provides a quieter counterpoint to the beach district. Explore further webcams along the Landes coast to broaden your view of Hossegor and its Atlantic setting.
