Surf, Pool Time And Easy Summer Living In Soustons Plage
This is the kind of holiday where the day can begin with a surf, drift into an afternoon beside the pool and finish with dinner, drinks and a group of people you only met a few days ago.
The camp sits behind the dunes and close to Lac Marin, with the Atlantic beach, bars, restaurants and summer promenade all within walking distance. You can enjoy the energy of a social surf camp without giving up the comfort of a proper bungalow, private facilities and your own veranda.

- Fully equipped bungalows for one to five guests
- Large heated swimming pool and pool bar

Why Choose Surf Camp Soustons Plage?
It brings together the strongest parts of a surf camp, a bungalow holiday and a sociable adults-only summer break.
Heated Pool & Pool Bar
Come back from the beach, cool off, grab a drink and let the afternoon unfold without another plan.
Your Own Bungalow Base
Enjoy bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen space and a veranda while staying close to the camp atmosphere.
Social Without Feeling Forced

The kind of summer that moves at its own pace
Surf Before Lunch. Pool In The Afternoon. Stay Out After Sunset.
Walk to the waves in the morning, drift back through the pine trees and spend the afternoon around the pool. By evening, dinner is ready, the bar is open and nobody is in a rush to call it a night.
