The Quiksilver & Roxy Junior Pro Returns to Hossegor–Capbreton

The next generation of European surfers is back on the Landes coast! From July 3 to 5, 2026, the Quiksilver & Roxy Junior Pro will bring together some of Europe’s best male and female surfers under the age of 21 in Capbreton, just a few minutes from Hossegor.

This World Surf League (WSL) Junior event is the perfect opportunity to witness the performances of the future world surfing champions. Expect spectacular maneuvers, hard-fought heats, and a unique atmosphere on the beaches of the southern coast of the Landes region.
