Musée de l'Hydraviation
From 1930 to 1955, Biscarrosse was the place where Latécoère seaplanes were assembled and went on test flights. The Seaplane Museum, located at the mythical site of the former base, tells you this story and the history of worldwide seaplane activity. A unique collection of models, mechanical parts, documents etc display all the motions of that period. Equally remarkable, the exhibition hall is one of the highlights of the visit with its seaplanes from different eras.
