Camping holidays in the Gironde give a real flavour of Western France. The mighty
Gironde flows into the Atlantic Ocean to the north of the city of Bordeaux. The
three campsites offered (two shared between Eurocamp and Keycamp, the other from
Keycamp), are all on the northern side of the Gironde estuary, all close to the
attractive holiday resort of Royan.
The northern-most site,
Sequoia Parc, is close to the Ile d'Oléron, a very popular holiday destination
for the French, and well worth a visit. This campsite may be 8 km from the beach
but with a fantastic pool complex this isn't really a problem, especially with the
great facilities on offer at this parc.
Camping Bonne Anse, on the other hand, is right on the beach and is a lively
site with plenty going on, especially in high season.
Palmyre Loisirs is a big site in a pine forest about 1 mile from the beach,
with a tropical-style pool complex and a lively and varied programme of entertainment.
From this area you can take a ferry across the mouth of the Gironde estuary and
visit the vineyards of Bordeaux, or it's a short drive north to the historic and
attractive port city of La Rochelle.
Flights are available to La Rochelle or Bordeaux, where you can hire a car from
Auto Europe Car Hire or
Argus Car Hire. If you drive
it's about 5 and a half hours from Caen using
Brittany Ferries, not including
stops, or about 7 hours from Calais. For

where you will also see our hotels displayed for you to

stop.
