Coastal safety at the campsite with direct access to the beach

Safety is a serious issue in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, particularly during the summer season when holidaymakers flock to the beaches. To ensure everyone's safety, a first-aid post, bathing area surveillance and signage are installed on part of the beaches during July and August. This includes the coastline of our campsite with direct access to the beach in the Landes region by the sea.

One of the particular dangers that can be encountered on the beaches of Nouvelle-Aquitaine is the baïne. This natural phenomenon, which generates powerful currents, takes the form of a basin carved out by the swell, which is difficult to see at high tide. If you're caught in a baïne, it's crucial to stay calm. Don't fight the current, and let the water carry you closer to the shore.

In addition to this advice, it's a good idea to find out about weather conditions and tides before heading to the beach. Avoid swimming alone: choose beaches where there are lifeguards. And don't forget to protect your skin from UV rays by regularly applying sun cream and wearing a hat and sunglasses.

By following these recommendations, you'll be able to enjoy your holiday with complete peace of mind. The beach is a place for relaxation and leisure, but it must be approached with caution and respect for safety rules.
