Lit-et-Mixe

​

Lit-et-Mixe is a peaceful village in the heart of the Landes region on France's beautiful Atlantic coast, offering visitors the perfect blend of unspoilt beaches, pine forests and traditional French village charm. Just a short drive from the ocean, Lit-et-Mixe is an ideal destination for families, nature lovers, surfers and anyone looking to enjoy a relaxing holiday away from the larger seaside resorts. Our airport transfer service provides comfortable, reliable transport from Bordeaux Airport, with a journey time of approximately 1 hour 30 minutes, and from Biarritz Airport, approximately 1 hour 20 minutes, depending on traffic. We provide direct transfers to hotels, campsites, holiday homes, surf camps and private villas throughout Lit-et-Mixe and the surrounding area.

​

Although the village itself is set inland, Cap de l'Homy Beach, just 10 minutes away, is one of the region's hidden gems and is well known for its excellent surfing conditions. Visitors can enjoy lessons and equipment hire from local surf schools, including Cap de l'Homy Surf School and seasonal instructors operating during the summer months. The consistent Atlantic waves make the area suitable for both beginners and experienced surfers.

​

Cap de l'Homy Beach is supervised by qualified lifeguards during the main summer season, with designated swimming areas clearly marked by safety flags. The beach is popular with families thanks to its wide golden sands and natural surroundings. Visitors should always swim between the flags and follow lifeguard advice, as Atlantic tides and currents can be strong.

Lit-et-Mixe is surrounded by the magnificent Landes Forest, offering hundreds of kilometres of scenic cycling and walking trails. Visitors can enjoy mountain biking, hiking, horse riding, fishing and wildlife watching, or explore nearby beaches including Cap de l'Homy, Contis-Plage and Saint-Girons. The area is also ideal for paddleboarding and canoeing on nearby lakes and rivers, making it a fantastic destination for outdoor enthusiasts.

​

Accommodation includes family-friendly campsites, holiday cottages, villas, guesthouses and hotels.
