Moliets-Plage lies on the Atlantic coast of the Landes department, in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, halfway between Bordeaux and the Basque Country. The town benefits from direct ocean access, with a fine sandy beach lined by the state-owned forest that characterises this whole stretch of the Landes coast. It's this blend of maritime pines and dunes that gives Moliets-Plage its distinctive atmosphere, more intimate than the larger neighbouring resorts.
Camping fits naturally here: being right next to the water means reaching the beach on foot from the accommodation, without crossing a road. People come here for swimming, surfing on the Atlantic's consistent waves, and to enjoy a wooded setting that shelters from wind and heat in summer. The resort remains human in scale, making it a popular destination for families seeking a seaside less built-up than other parts of the Aquitaine coast.
Moliets-Plage owes part of its fame to the Courant d'Huchet, a watercourse classed as a nature reserve that winds between the dunes and the forest before reaching the ocean. It can be explored by traditional flat-bottomed boat, the galupe, on guided trips that reveal protected wildlife and plant life, fairly rare on the Landes coast.
The town also has a well-known 18-hole golf course, laid out in the pine forest, that draws a loyal clientele every summer. The cycle paths that cross the state-owned forest link Moliets to neighbouring resorts such as Vieux-Boucau or Messanges, over several dozen kilometres, a pleasant way to explore the coast without a car. The beach itself, supervised in season, remains a spot popular with surfers for the consistency of its waves.
