VVF - VVF means "Village Vacances Families" and it's the name of the right peak at "la piste plage".I've been surfing there last week and it wasn't always big and glassy enough to say it has been great surfing anyway the last two days waking up very early and getting in the water at 7.00 am with upcoming tide it was really amusing and waves we catched were glassy and long enough for fun rides even for a longboard.Behind the dunes and close enough to the beach (10 minuts of stroll) there's a camping "La Civelle" it's a three stars camping, not expensive (19 euros for a placement for a tent fro two persons and electricity), just outside the camping a lot of markets and 5 minuts by car from Capbreton center.
