Plage de la Giraudière

Plage de la Giraudière is an Atlantic beach in Le Grand-Village-Plage with broad expanses of golden sand backed by dense pine forest. The shoreline stretches for several kilometers and accommodates both swimmers seeking calm water and those interested in board sports.

The beach transformed in the 1970s from a natural shoreline into a supervised swimming destination with organized safety measures. This shift established the location as a reliable spot for beach visitors.

The beach serves as a gathering place where locals and visitors spend time together, with the pine forest behind creating a natural backdrop for daily seaside activities.

Lifeguards and basic facilities like first-aid stations are available during summer months. Visitors should know that different sections of the beach cater to different groups, so it pays to explore and find your preferred area.

The northern section of this beach functions as a designated naturist zone, a rare feature for this part of the French coast. Both areas have developed organically and remain well-established today.
