Penon Beach, Surfing beach in Seignosse, France

The sand stretches along the Atlantic coast with a wooden walkway connecting the beach area to nearby residential complexes and commercial establishments.

The development of Plage du Penon in the 1970s marked the transformation of Seignosse from a rural community into a seaside resort destination.

Local surf schools maintain a strong presence at the beach, teaching water sports techniques to visitors throughout the summer season.

The beach has restrooms, supervision from 11:30 AM to 5:30 PM, and parking areas for cars and bicycles.

A 130-meter elevated pathway called La balade sur la Dune allows visitors to observe both the ocean and the Pyrenees mountains in the distance.
