Bus to Lacanau Ocean
Take the bust from Bordeaux. Ask for the "Lacanau Ocean carte", not "bus", because it's more like a coach. Warning there's no bathroom onboard and its about a 2 hour ride, so hit the bog beforehand. Costs about 14e one way and 24e return. The bus leaves from Bordeaux St Jean, That station is called Garde St Jean in the local subway system. Go to the end of the line and follow the smile to the beach.

informations
Hi,
Lacanau is pretty safe for kids as it's a beach break and there is lots of life guard.
Campground on lacanau are really expensive but you may camp on le moutchique it's near lacanau(4 km) and it's chipper than lacanau océan. The bus from bordeaux to lacanau is really expensive (about 20€).

Safe for kids?????
Hi, we're off to Lacanau in August 2007. Yes I expect it'll be packed but what I really want to know is how safe the water is for kids? We'll have three with us, aged 9,10, 11. They'll want to do a bit of bodyboarding. I've heard the rip can be nasty..... are there life guards there? Or will we have to keep an eye on them all the time they're in the water?

william, stay in stinky lacanau
hey william, you love lacanau so much....stay there, kook. no shit it's usually offshore in the morning, anyone can figure that out. and as for your son breaking 2 boards there; big f*cking deal. i've seen guys at pumping hossegor break 2 boards in 1 hour. i break boards all the time, so what? sh*t happens bro. you just sound like some angry old man longboarder. lacanau is perfect for you. try coming to where i live in santa cruz and surfing steamer lane on a solid groundswell when it's double overhead and then we'll see if you've got the sack to even paddle out. i doubt it. so don't come posting on this site talking shit about guys like me when you don't know who the f*ck you're talking about. got it "bro?"

jason and thomas
you sound like kooks,yes it gets onshore alot as the day warms up but if you surf early in the day or on offshore days this place can get heavy,my son's broken two boards here...when it's peeling 6 foot plus which happens alot you will be spoilt for barrels...if your pissed off by the nightlife why come here in the first place after all it's not BLACKBURN...most people who come here seem to bring friends with them and hang out at beach parties...perhaps nobody wants to hang out with you losers.
