Features
LOCATION AND SURF CONDITIONS
Secluded in the beautiful pine forests of Le Pin Sec, just 50 metres from the surf, lies the unique and almost secret Feral Surf Tipi Village. Along the stunning Atlantic coast, it is here we find the perfect spot if you want to surf, party or relax. Just outside of Bordeaux, the Medoc region is famous for its sun, sea, food and wine..
The area has a wonderful communal feel, with nearby surf towns that have a real surfer’s vibe to them, with plenty of restaurants, bars, cafés and surf shops. With a thriving markets, street arts, music and entertainment scene during the summer months.
The Famous Lacanau-Ocean surf spot is a well known and popular surf town, which is just 25mins from the tipi village..
