Lacanau-Ocean, France

You can find this little slice of California just over an hour from Bordeaux. In the midst of a dense pine forest, with the Atlantic Ocean on one side and rippling lakes on the other, Lacanau-Ocean is full of things to do, eat, swim and see.

Banana Surf Shop Cafe

@e123md

Stopped by for drinks whilst watching the sunset. Super relaxed vibes. Surfers came straight from the sea to chill here in their wetsuits. They also serve food and host a surf school.

I didn't get a chance to eat her but heard nothing but good reviews. More of an evening restaurant, I was advised to book in advance during busy seasons.

A tasty brunch spot serving poke bowls/smoothie bowls/hash bowls. A great alternative to the traditional bakery/croissant-style cafe breakfast.
