In the town Labenne follow the road signs to Labenne-Ocean or Labenn-Plage.
On the beach you find on the northern part one bunker and in the south you find the other bunkers.
On the boulevard is also a bunker located and next to the boulevard, on the beach, there are two nice emplacements.
Further south are several radar emplacements located, two Würzburgs and one Freya emplacement.
There is also a big radar bunker on the beach. It is broken into two big pieces, but still impressive.
Most of the bunkers belonged to a Luftwaffe Stützpunkt. Almost all bunkers are open, except the two emplacements, L4091. The radar bunker type L486 looks very impressive now while it has broken apart. The Mammut radar bunker is closed and integrated in the boulevard. Only the places where the radar stood are visible.
