Car boot sale by the Gastes lake

A car boot sale by the lake

The car boot sale by the Gastes lake benefits from an exceptional natural setting, by the Cazaux and Sanguinet lake, the second largest natural lake in France. This unique location makes it one of the most pleasant car boot sales in the Landes department, attracting bargain hunters and strollers for an outdoor day.

Gastes, a village of Born by the lake

Gastes is a small commune in the Landes region of the Pays de Born, nestled between the maritime pine forest and the lake shores. This discreet and preserved village offers direct access to the lake, with a fine sandy beach popular with swimmers and water sports enthusiasts in the summer. The car boot sale takes place in this privileged setting, with your feet in the grass facing the lake.

The Great Lakes of the Landes

The Cazaux and Sanguinet lake is part of the Grands Lacs des Landes, a chain of natural lakes stretching from Biscarrosse to Sanguinet. These bodies of fresh water, bordered by pine trees and beaches, are one of the natural jewels of Nouvelle-Aquitaine. Gastes, on the west bank of the lake, offers a magnificent view of this turquoise expanse of water.

Catering and relaxation

The refreshments and on-site catering allow visitors to eat throughout the day. The lakeside setting invites you to extend your visit with a walk along the banks or a swim in the lake. Exhibitor pitches are offered at 3 euros per linear meter.

Water activities and leisure on the lake

The Cazaux and Sanguinet lake offers a multitude of water activities: swimming, paddleboarding, canoeing, sailing, and fishing. Visitors to the car boot sale can extend their day with a relaxing session by the water or a walk on the forest paths along the banks. The Gastes beach, with its fine sand and calm waters, is particularly suitable for families. In summer, the water temperature reaches pleasant levels, inviting you to swim after a morning of treasure hunting. This exceptional setting makes the car boot sale by the lake a unique event in the landscape of Landes flea markets.
