  • Les Landes has over 50 lakes and ponds, several of which are easily accessible from the campsite.
  • Each site offers a variety of activities: supervised swimming, sailing, paddleboarding, kayaking, and fishing.
  • These bodies of water are surrounded by pine forests, beaches, and bike paths, perfect for rides.
  • Highlights include: Biscarrosse, Sanguinet, Mimizan, Léon, Soustons, Vieux-Boucau, and Arjuzanx.
  • Most lakes are easily reachable by car or bike, allowing for day trips.

Are you dreaming of a vacation in the heart of the Landes without compromising your environmental values? Camping Le Saint Martin, located in Moliets-et-Maâ, proves that it is possible to combine comfort, relaxation, and respect for nature.

Water and energy: precious resources saved

Water and electricity are at the heart of our daily concerns. Between innovative equipment, LED lighting, and renewable energy, discover how our eco-friendly campsite in the Landes reduces its energy footprint without cutting back on your comfort.

Equipment designed to reduce consumption

At Camping Le Saint Martin, every drop of water counts. Water savers and pressure reducers are fitted to faucets and showers, helping to preserve this resource without reducing your comfort. Water from the local water tower is even used for irrigation and the restrooms.

Water and electricity meters

are regularly checked to optimize consumption, and the technical service team ensures the maintenance of all facilities.

Next-generation lighting

75% of the campsite's lighting is now LED, significantly reducing electricity consumption while providing optimal comfort. Motion sensors in common areas prevent energy waste.

The outdoor pools are heated to a maximum of 23 to 24°C, an ideal compromise between swimming comfort and energy savings.

Commitment to renewable energy

The campsite doesn't stop there: solar panels produce domestic hot water, and several solar lighting projects are under development, particularly for public lighting and some of the restroom facilities.

An innovative system in 29 accommodations allows for the automatic shut-off of air conditioning and electrical outlets when you leave your unit, thus avoiding 90% of unnecessary energy waste.

Sorting, reduction, and recovery of waste

Reducing our waste is everyone's business. Thanks to a comprehensive selective sorting system and the complete elimination of disposable tableware, we are changing our habits to preserve the environment.

A comprehensive selective sorting system

Several selective sorting points are distributed throughout the campsite. Even bio-waste is recycled thanks to a dedicated bag we provide upon arrival.

We work exclusively with bulk or large-format products to limit unnecessary packaging, and displays guide you in your sorting actions in accordance with local regulations.

Zero disposable tableware

Here, no single-use cups or plates! We provide reusable eco-cups during activities, a simple but effective approach to significantly reduce our waste.

Natural well-being

Your health and the planet's health are intimately linked. That's why we have chosen eco-labeled products, quality linen, and green spaces maintained without pesticides.

Eco-labeled cleaning products

All products used for cleaning premises, rooms, and apartments are eco-labeled. They guarantee better indoor air quality and fewer health risks.

Bleach, irritating to the respiratory tract and toxic to aquatic organisms, is banned from our practices.

Quality and responsible linen

We have chosen cotton bed linen for your comfort, and our industrial washing machines operate in "low-temperature wash" mode to reduce our energy footprint.

Naturally maintained green spaces

Our green spaces are maintained without pesticides, using alternative methods like vinegar to combat weeds. We also promote tree planting to provide coolness during heatwaves.

Each year, we commit to new criteria to perfect our environmental approach.

A sensitized team and committed partners

Eco-responsibility is not improvised; it is built daily with trained teams and partners who share our environmental and social values.

Continuous training

Our teams are aware of the eco-friendly practices to observe in their daily tasks, whether it's checking fluids, reading meters, or maintaining facilities.

Responsible suppliers

We choose our service providers and suppliers based on their sustainable and social commitments, prioritizing environmentally friendly cleaning and garden products.

Sustainable mobility encouraged

Coming to the campsite and getting around during your stay can also be eco-responsible. Parking for electric vehicles, public transport, and bike paths: all options are within your reach.

Parking and electric charging

Each camping pitch has its own designated parking space. A reserved spot with electric vehicle charging is indicated by a car + plug logo on the "Guest Handbook" map, with a visible sign on the pitch.

Prioritize public transport

We encourage the use of public transport for your journeys:

  • Dax train station: Trans Landes bus to Soustons
  • YEGO: from Soustons to Moliets-et-Maâ
  • Seasonal shuttle from the village to the beach
  • Biarritz-Bordeaux Airport easily accessible
  • VELODYSSEE: the campsite is certified for cycle tourists

Your eco-responsible camping stay in Les Landes

Choosing Le Saint Martin campsite means opting for a holiday where every detail counts. It's enjoying the sunshine of Les Landes, the proximity to the ocean and the forest, while knowing that your stay helps preserve this exceptional natural heritage.

We are delighted to welcome you to our establishment and thank you for supporting us in our eco-responsible approach during your stay.
