About Plages Landes
Why Plages Landes?
Plages-Landes was designed for beach users in the Landes area, providing reliable and up-to-date information on weather conditions, available services and facilities, as well as bathing conditions across different beaches.
Who runs it?
Plages-Landes.info is managed by Landes Attractivité (formerly the Landes Tourism Board). Its mission is to promote the territorial brand “Landes, Terre des possibles” and to enhance the overall attractiveness of the Landes region, in partnership with the Departmental Council, Tourist Offices, local authorities, and professional chambers.
Our goal is to strengthen regional momentum and improve quality of life across the department.
