Rent a boat in Capbreton with or without a licence

Capbreton or multi-card pleasure boating

The small town of Landes has a unique status which automatically gives it a certain popularity. In the Landes, Capbreton is the only marina with a direct opening onto the Atlantic Ocean. Its development during the 1970s made it possible to attract boaters, and not only from the west of France, the Basque Country or Spain.

Capbreton has put all the chances on its side to attract your attention. Its status as a center for surfing, sailing and fishing gives it the voice of sailors and water sportsmen at heart. Its noted preservation of nature (two Natura 2000 sites; one ZNIEFF zone) has earned it the recognition of environmentalists. Finally, the city (no relation to Brittany despite the name) has boundless energy.
