The Centre is located in Mimizan, in the Landes region of Nouvelle-Aquitaine. Nestled between the lake and the ocean, it offers an exceptional natural setting, just minutes from the beaches and surrounded by pine forest.

The Centre specialises in hosting groups of minors: school trips, summer camps, sports training, and themed water-based stays. It is particularly suitable for primary and secondary schools, sports clubs, youth organisations and holiday centres.

The Centre offers supervised activities with its own certified instructors: stand-up paddleboarding, rowing, sailing, and canoeing. No intermediaries – the organisation is simplified for teachers and group leaders. Surfing and coastal lifesaving are also available through our external partners on Mimizan's beaches.

The Centre is open all year round except during the Christmas holidays. Off-season stays in spring and autumn are ideal for enjoying a peaceful environment and increased availability.

The Centre can host up to 280 people in collective accommodation, across several buildings and in marabout tents during the summer season.

Meals are prepared on site by our kitchen team using locally sourced, homemade food. They are served in the central dining hall (self-service), with packed lunches available for day trips and outdoor activities.
