Since 2005, ECW Surf & Skate Guesthouse in Soustons (near Hossegor, France) has been a home away from home for surfers, skaters, travelers, and free spirits from all over the world.

We offered cozy rooms, van & tent camping, skate ramps, a good vibe, and good access to some of the best waves in Europe. It was more than just accommodation — it was a community hub, a place where friendships were made, sessions were shared, and memories that last a lifetime were created.

Then the storm hit..

The Place was heavily damaged and partially destroyed. We lost ramps, structures, trees and much of the setup that made ECW special. Insurance covered only a fraction, and now we’re facing the reality of having to buy the property (to secure it long-term) and fully renovate it so we can reopen stronger than ever.

We need €170,000 to:

• Purchase the property

• Complete structural repairs and storm-proofing

• Renovate rooms and common areas

• Rebuild the skate facilities and camping infrastructure

• Add some eco-friendly upgrades (solar, better insulation, water management)

Every euro counts!

Whether you’ve stayed with us before, surfed in Hossegor, or just love the surf or skate life— this is your chance to help keep this special place alive.

We refuse to let the storm win.

With your support, ECW Surf will rise again — better, stronger, and ready for the next generation of shady people.
