Camping de la Bosse

Activities of all sorts are within a short stroll or drive of the site. If you want to stick close to home, Camping de la Bosse's setting by the sea and beach has it well placed for watersports and sandy days as well as lazy times by the marina or taking a hire boat out. Cycle paths and horse riding are available nearby for land-based activities, or you could investigate the island's 50 kilometres or so of hiking trails, through varied landscapes such as pine and oak forest, coast and sand, and the famed Noirmoutier salt marshes. Details of five island walks can be picked up at the island's tourist offices. A good handful of guided tours are available to sort from the tourist offices too, such as trips around the oyster farm of Port du Bonhomme or to old sites like Saint Philbert Church and the village of Vieil. A few kilometres from the site is the island capital of Noirmoutier-en-l’Île, home to another marina and harbour as well as a fine selection of cafés and restaurants, a lively market and a seventeenth-century castle.
