Rue de la plage

This emblematic street in Soulac-sur-Mer is packed with entertainment and shops for locals and visitors alike. You'll find a host of restaurants for a gourmet break after a day at the beach. The lively bars welcome tourists for relaxing moments on the terrace, while the ice-cream parlours attract young and old alike. You can also drop in to see us at the Tourist Office!

At nightfall, the funfair lights up, offering a festive atmosphere and activities for all the family: merry-go-rounds, games and sweet stalls will keep you entertained. Beach shops abound along this lively street, selling souvenirs, holiday accessories and everything you need to make the most of the pleasures of the seaside resort. You'll also find a number of ready-to-wear stores where summer outfits take pride of place. Strolling along this street, whether starting from the Basilica of Notre-Dame-de-la-Fin-des-Terres, listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO as part of the Santiago de Compostela Pilgrimage Route since 1998, or from the seafront, is a great way to soak up the warm, friendly atmosphere that is so much part of Soulac-sur-Mer's charm. The adjoining alleyways are also a treasure trove of art galleries, craft shops and hidden cafés.
