The best water parks in the Landes

The Landes region concentrates some of the best water parks in the South-West of France. Whether for a day out with the family or to complement a stay at a campground, the water parks in the Landes offer hours of excitement and bursts of laughter. Between Aquatic Landes in Labenne Ocean, Atlantic Park in Seignosse and Aquapark Biscarrosse, the Landes water parks attract thousands of families every summer looking to enjoy the Atlantic coast. And for vacations that are both aquatic and beach-focused, campgrounds with water parks in the Landes offer the best of both worlds.

Aquatic Landes in Labenne Ocean: the reference water park of the 40

Aquatic Landes is undoubtedly the most well-known water park in the Landes. Located in Labenne Ocean, just a stone’s throw from the Basque Country and Biarritz, this aquatic leisure park welcomes families and youth seeking thrills throughout the summer.

Aquatic Landes Labenne offers a complete range of attractions: slides of all sizes, a wave pool to play surfer, a lazy river and dedicated areas for the little ones. The aquatic park also distinguishes itself by its welcoming atmosphere and outdoor relaxation areas between activities.

Practical info: The water park is open from mid-June to early September. In August, open daily; in June and September, partial opening (Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday). Souvenir photos are available at the exit of the water slides. Plan a full day to enjoy all the attractions.

Atlantic Park in Seignosse: thrills on the Landes coast

Atlantic Park in Seignosse is the other major water park in the Landes. This water park with a decidedly family atmosphere is ideally located in the heart of the South Aquitaine Coast, between Hossegor and Vieux-Boucau.

Atlantic Park Seignosse stands out for its thrills: vertiginous water slides, water jump from elevated platforms, wave pool and aquatic adventure areas. The heart of the park is designed to welcome families with children of all ages — from baby wading pools to extreme slides for teenagers.

The geographic location of Atlantic park water park is a considerable advantage: a few kilometers from the wild beaches of Seignosse and the legendary surf spots of Hossegor, the park is easily visited in combination with a day on the Landes coastline.

Aquapark Biscarrosse: water fun by the lake

Aquapark Biscarrosse offers an original aquatic experience in one of the most beautiful natural settings in the Landes: by the Biscarrosse Lake, a few kilometers from the Atlantic ocean.

This Aquitaine water park open-air focuses on activities in a natural setting: inflatable structures on the lake, water jump from platforms, adventure island floating with trampolines and slides, paddle and kayak on the water. An alternative to traditional large water parks — the fresh water of the lake and the forested setting of the Landes give this experience a special flavor.

Aquapark Biscarrosse is particularly suited to families staying in the numerous campgrounds in the Biscarrosse sector — lake and ocean — which can extend a morning swim at Biscarrosse beach with an afternoon of aquatic adventures on the lake.

Water Park in Sames: the Landes surprise

Less well-known than its neighbors, Water Park Sames is an address to remember for families staying in the southern Landes sector. Located in a rural village in the Landes, this human-sized water park offers slides, pools and activities for children in a relaxed atmosphere, away from the big crowds of the coast.

Water Park notably features a white sand lagoon artificial reminiscent of tropical beaches, wellness areas and thrills accessible even to the smallest. A great find for visitors exploring the interior of the Landes off the usual tourist trails.

Campgrounds with water parks in the Landes: the double experience

To make the most of the water parks in the Landes while enjoying quality accommodation a stone’s throw from the ocean, the campgrounds with water parks in the department are the ideal solution. These complexes offer their own aquatic spaces — lazy rivers, slides, wave pools, white sand lagoons — in addition to the Landes water parks to visit on an excursion.

The Seignosse-Messanges-Vieux-Boucau sector groups several 4 and 5-star campgrounds with impressive integrated water parks. Camping Le Vieux Port in Messanges is the largest 5-star campground in France with its 1,400 m² of aquatic space. Campgrounds like Azu’rivage (between the ocean and Soustons Lake) or other establishments on the Aquitaine coast rival each other with equipment for families.

The ideal program: ocean beach in the morning, water park at the campground in the afternoon, an excursion to Aquatic Landes or Atlantic Park in the middle of your stay. Children will want more.
