An exceptional setting

On the shores of Soustons Lake and close to the town centre, the Isle Verte Sports Centre:

  • offers elite sports teams the latest and very best facilities (accommodation, sports equipment, fitness area, recovery area, food and beverage services),
  • guarantees athletes the peace and quiet they need to focus
  • and the opportunity to train in a unique setting (lakes, forests, nature trails, ocean).

The site’s main strength lies in its one-stop design which limits movement between different facilities and ensures that athletes can enjoy total privacy.
