Sports and leisure activities Armentières

The sailing school welcomes every year students of all ages and levels. The program on the 45-hectare lake includes windsurfing, catamaran, optimist and funboat for children, hansa for people with reduced mobility, stand-up paddle and giant paddle. Last novelty for the amateurs of even stronger sensations: the possibility of discovering the wing foil and the wind foil. Private lessons and training courses are offered during the week and on weekends, supervised by very educational instructors.

The municipal music school in Armentières offers adapted music courses for everyone from the age of 3. The school has around 300 students each year and 22 teachers. From ages 3 to 6, the youngest can take part in the Musical Garden, which will help them open up to music through games, songs and dances. From CE1 onwards, teaching includes Musical Training (solfeggio), Instrumental Training and group practice. Adults can also begin or resume musical training. Musical events are organized throughout the year, including auditions and concerts. The school also runs awareness-raising activities for schoolchildren.

The base of Prés Prés extends in total over 120 ha. It comprises a lake of 44 hectares of land, suitable for all water amusement, river port and many facilities. Lovers of walks especially appreciate the network of roads, one of which is entirely surrounding the lake - a 40 minute walk! In passing, a visit to the ornithological park where 200 migratory or resident bird species coexist with the possibility of interfering in their privacy from observatories. A beach for tanning and a multitude of activities planned for the day to pass without realising: mini-golf, educational farm and children's village, pedal boats, boat walks with a guide, a tour of smugglers - a game with a gift at the end, a walk and a go train. Fishing, on the other hand, is strictly prohibited, but it is very rare to get bored on the edge of the largest inland water centre in France.

The Calyssia pool is the ideal place to relax and enjoy the pleasures of water. The 25 meter pool is perfect for swimming laps and the pool is more fun with a slide, a river against the current, a bubble bench... Enjoy several aquagym activities, different levels are offered, and for the youngest: aquafun and baby swimmers. As for well-being, two sauna cabins make this place a place of absolute tranquility and plenitude.
