Hiking
The tradition of games and entertainment in Pontaillac dates back to the late 19th century, with gambling clubs such as the Kursaal (around 1880) and the Otrada (1892). These establishments preceded the current casino and catered to a seaside and aristocratic clientele; they combined games, cafes, and entertainment on the beach.
In 1902, La Restauration was built in Pontaillac, on the site of various games and entertainment venues. It served as a cafe-restaurant but also attracted gambling enthusiasts, such as horse racing.
