Les Landes is the destination par excellence for busy holidays on a budget: the range of outdoor leisure activities on offer is so varied that it’s easy to find a new free activity every day!
Discover a few ideas for relaxing without spending a thing during your stay in the Landes at a campsite in Moliets.

 

Free activities in seaside Moliets

By booking at Camping les Cigales, a campsite in Moliets just a 5-minute walk from the beach, your stay in the Landes region will be the perfect opportunity to take full advantage of the ocean. Just below the mouth of the Huchet current, the central beach has a lifeguard station and bathing is supervised in season. There is also a special kite-flying area. If you’ve got your own board, the beach at Moliets is also one of the most famous spots in the Landes region, so you can have fun for free all vacation long!
A little higher up, the beach of the courant d’Huchet will delight wilderness enthusiasts. An ideal spot for a romantic stroll, it also promises the most Instagrammable photos.

 

Free activities around the lakes

TheEtang de Moliets and theEtang de la Prade are just a stone’s throw from the Les Cigales campsite, and are ideal for hiking and nature outings. Family walks provide an opportunity to encounter the unique fauna typical of wetlands, and an incredibly biodiverse flora. The banks of theEtang de la Prade, in particular, welcome fishing enthusiasts and tourists wishing to discover this activity during their stay in the Landes. Wild beaches also invite you to swim in the lake waters, enjoy a family picnic or a siesta in the heart of nature. If you own an inflatable paddle board, the calm waters of the ponds near your campsite rental in Moliets are ideal for smooth sailing.

Other free activities at the campsite in Moliets

It’s not uncommon for holidaymakers booking a stay in the Landes to bring their bikes with them. If you’ve got them with you, your vacation at the Moliets campsite will be the perfect opportunity for a family outing: on the seafront Vélodyssée, but also on the forest paths, in the shade of the pines and cork oaks.
Visits to protected natural areas such as the Etang Noir reserve and the courants d’Huchet reserve are also 100% free. Walking enthusiasts will find itineraries to suit all levels, including a family walk around the Chapelle Sainte-Thérèse in Labenne-Océan, or a long hike in the nearby Basque mountains (approx. 1h30 from your campsite in Moliets). And if you’re staying at a campsite, there are plenty of free activities for young and old alike.
Our Les Cigales campsite has play areas for your children, as well as a multisport field, fitness area, tennis courts and petanque pitches.
