At a glance
Club Plage Anglet Les Petits Mailhouns is a children’s beach club on Plage de Marinella in Anglet, with a focus on swimming, outdoor play and organised activities. It offers a child-centred alternative to a standard beach day for families spending time on the coast around Biarritz.
The club welcomes children from three to twelve years old. Its programme is adapted to different age groups and includes collective sports, team games, contests and tournaments. Environmental awareness activities are also part of the summer programme, adding an educational element to the recreational setting.
Swimming is a central part of the club’s offering. Group and individual lessons are available from May for children aged three and over. The site has a heated pool measuring 10 metres by 5 metres, providing a controlled setting for learning and practice alongside the open beach.
Facilities include trampolines, an inflatable play structure and a range of games. The atmosphere is active, social and informal, with the emphasis on movement, shared play and time outdoors. Additional activities such as scuba diving and aquagym may also be available through the club, subject to contact with the venue.
In July and August, the club runs a fuller programme of age-appropriate activities, while swimming lessons begin earlier in the season. Sessions can be arranged as lessons or half-days, making the venue suitable for families looking for structured childcare during part of a beach day. The format also works for children who enjoy group activities, as well as those who need a more focused introduction to swimming.
Reservations are available for lessons and half-day sessions through the club’s booking links or directly at the site. The beach location keeps the setting connected to Anglet’s coastal atmosphere, while the pool and play equipment give children several activities beyond the sand. The club is best suited to families seeking organised recreation rather than a dining-focused beach venue.
