Mimizan: The Best Place to Watch Sunset
Mimizan is a seaside resort in southwestern France. It belongs to the Landes department in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. Also known as the Pearl of the Silver Coast, this charming seaside community offers one of the best sunset views. Mimizan is often compared to the Old Orchard Beach in Maine, U.S. To get here by plane, you can pass through Bordeaux Airport. Another option is via Biarritz Pays Basque.
Best Time to Visit
The best time of the year to visit Nouvelle-Aquitaine is from May to October, when the weather is warm with little rainfall. Some events to catch all year round in neighboring areas include the Wine and Flea Market, Medoc Marathon and European Heritage Day. Mimizan France hotel rates may be extra higher during these times so it is best to book months ahead.
