Campsite Description

Located in the heart of a pine forest, with direct access to a beautiful long stretch of sandy beach, this large, well-established site is ideal for an active family holiday. The site has a lively atmosphere, boasting fantastic entertainment and sports facilities including a horse riding centre and an extensive games area, with football and volleyball pitches, tennis courts and a fitness circuit. This makes Le Vieux Port a great choice for those with older children. The focal point is the superb pirate shipwreck-style aqua complex, which was renovated in 2009 and features a kid's lagoon, two jacuzzis and a wave pool. The pitches benefit from the shade of the surrounding woodland, and there's a footpath through the trees directly to the beach, where sand and surf tempt both sunbathers and watersports enthusiasts alike. The site's grill restaurant offers a selection of tasty meals and a variety of on-site entertainment is organised with children's clubs, shows, discos and folk dancing evenings. Location: 50km from Biarritz.
