When to go to Hossegor?

Surfers come from everywhere for the Hossegor beach breaks, which is what the place is known for first. The lake behind the dunes is the calm counterweight, easy to walk round or cross by canoe. Art Deco villas stand among the pines from the resort's early seaside years, and the Landes forest closes in just behind the last row of houses.
