What’s the weather like at Biscarrosse beaches?
Having been awarded the “Villes et Villages fleuris Quatre fleurs” label, this part of France stands out for its many forests and lakes. The third-largest town in the Landes département, it is also a seaside resort that delights tourists every year with its ideal wind conditions for board sports. The team at the Office Intercommunal de Mimizan will be delighted to welcome you and tell you more.
A tourist mecca
The city has been organized in such a way as to offer tourists three different and very distinct areas for their vacations.
- The first tourism hub is called Biscarrosse Ville. It brings together all the sites that bear witness to its history.
- The second tourist hub is Biscarrosse Lac. Located just seven kilometers from the town center, this area features three lakes: the small Lac de Cazaux-Sanguinet and Lac de Biscarrosse-Parentis.
- The third pole is, of course, La Plage , the seaside resort with its four kilometers of fine sand. It’s all the more important to know whether the climate is right for it.
Come and enjoy the tides of this tourist mecca!
What’s the weather forecast?
To make the most of the fine sand, it’s important that the weather is mild, with no gusts, rain, thunderstorms or a hint of wind for water sports enthusiasts. This place lives to the rhythm of the four seasons: spring, winter, summer and autumn.
The summer season starts in June and ends in September. During this period, the forecast calls for sunshine almost every day, with temperatures fluctuating between 25°C and 28°C. Summer rainfall was the lowest of the year, averaging around 75 m². In summer, there’s plenty of sunshine, with a high UV index of around 7. The summer period can sometimes be plagued by small thunderstorms.
In winter, however, it is far from favorable. Biscarrosse regularly experiences rain showers, gusts and wind, with temperatures ranging from 8°C to 13°C. It’s not the best time to visit the beaches.
Spring is the season that heralds the return of fine weather to the beaches. If the weather in March wasn’t exactly kind, by the beginning of May it had started to warm up, with an average temperature of 22°C and more and more sunshine.
Finally, autumn is also a time when the weather can be mild. Especially in October, when conditions are favorable enough to enjoy the beaches.
Come and spend your vacations in the Landes department, near the Biscarrosse and Parentis lakes, and live to the rhythm of the tides in the pleasant climate of this little corner of France. For further information, please contact the Mimizan Intercommunal Tourist Office.
