There is a moment in La Baule when the light changes: the sun begins to drop over the bay, the terrace slowly fills, and the mood shifts from the calm of the afternoon to something livelier. That is the moment La Cabane Bauloise has chosen to make the most of, feet in the sand, with a panoramic view over the ocean and a menu designed for the occasion.
Why this moment is special at La Cabane Bauloise
The restaurant terrace, right on the beach, was designed to make the most of the horizon, with nothing to interrupt the view over the bay. As the day goes on, the mood evolves: golden light on the Atlantic, sand still warm underfoot, the red, white and blue that echo the beach huts, and a team that looks after its guests from morning until nightfall. A moment suspended between the end of the afternoon and the start of the evening, at La Cabane Bauloise.
The beach and tapas menu, made for aperitif time
To go with that moment, the beach and tapas menu offers dishes to share and cocktails, in a relaxed spirit that matches the sunset mood: you nibble, you talk, you watch the light change over the sea. It is deliberately lighter than the restaurant menu, made for lingering on the terrace without necessarily moving on to a full meal.
A moment to share, as a couple, with friends or with family
Sunset on the terrace suits every occasion: a moment for two after a day on the beach, a drink with friends before the evening carries on, or a family pause before dinner. The mood stays warm and convivial every time, carried by the setting and the open view over the horizon.
A drink with your feet in the sand
What makes this moment different at La Cabane Bauloise is precisely that you can live it with your feet in the sand, without leaving the beach restaurant behind. No need to choose between the beach and the terrace: the two merge, for a drink that keeps all the seaside spirit of La Baule right through to the end of the evening.
When to come for the sunset
The restaurant is open until midnight throughout the season, which leaves a wide window to enjoy the end of the afternoon and the start of the evening, whatever time the sun actually sets:
- September to June: Wednesday to Sunday, 11am to midnight
- July and August: every day, 11am to midnight
Carrying the evening on
Nothing stops you staying after the aperitif: the restaurant menu takes over for a fuller dinner, still facing the sea, for those who want to carry the evening on without changing address. Useful if you are still deciding where to eat in La Baule.
