Sylvamar - the perfect activity holiday in Gascony

Sylvamar resort is a fabulous choice if you are looking for a great family activity holiday in Gascony. Everything about this parc is superb, from its spectacular range of activities to the beautiful surroundings in which it resides.

Children absolutely love Sylvamar, and it is clear to see why. The waterpark at this resort has to be seen to be truly believed. Everything from its many pools, triple waterslide, play-river and fantastic sun terraces, are second to none and nothing less than you would expect from a resort in the Yelloh! Village chain. To add to this, only a stones-throw away, you can learn to body-board and surf at the superb Atlantic Waves club.

Every evening during high season, there are endless activities and entertainment centred around the restaurant and bar. However, once midnight arrives, all falls silent on the parc as the owners are very keen to keep noise levels down for the comfort and benefit of all visitors. This ensures that all people get a good night’s sleep ready for the activities on the following day.

Venturing beyond the boundaries of Sylvamar, you have a whole host of activities waiting for you. You could enjoy the great outdoors by cycling along the many forest roads and paths throughout Labenne, or you can head down to the town itself and experience the petting zoos, the bustling outdoor market and why not get right back to nature and visit the delightful Marais d’Orx nature park, which will be enjoyed by both children and adults alike.
