General
- In the D-Day landing zone in Normandy
- Close to Utah, Omaha, Gold and Juno beaches and the American cemetery
- Pools, fishing ponds, restaurant, pizzeria and kids' club
If you're venturing into Normandy to see the D-Day landing beaches – or for fishing, a friendly vibe, first-rate facilities and clean amenities, make the Calvados site Camping Port'Land your port of call.
The Port-en-Bessin-Huppain setting is fab, right in the D-Day landing area a few minutes' drive from Omaha beach and the American Cemetery, and within easy reach of the sands of Utah, Gold, Juno and Sword. To delve further into the past, medieval Bayeux is under 20 minutes' drive away.
It might, however, be a battle to advance off site… For the Camping Port'Land mission is to give guests much to do. This includes four fishing ponds, and activities galore including a pool table, ping pong, table football, a playground and a bouncy castle. The heated indoor pool is family friendly; an additional, outdoor, pool is open in the sunniest months, with paddling pool, two slides and sun loungers alongside.
Activities like painting and outdoor games can be leapt into at the Little Frogs club, greeting those aged between five and 12 daily in summer. Then gather the crew for traditional home-cooked cuisine and 'the best burgers in town' at the restaurant, or, in July and August, bag a tasty takeaway pizza.
Essentials are well sorted too, at the small shop next to reception, open for several hours daily in July and August. Adapters, board games and pétanque balls can also be borrowed on site (a small refundable deposit applies).
And the icing on this very friendly French cake? Electric hook-ups have been added to the car park for any guests who have late ferry departures, so you can still use the facilities before you leave.

Location
Local attractions
This fab site is centrally set in Normandy's D-Day landing zone, a few minutes' drive from Omaha beach and the American Cemetery, and close to the sands of Utah, Gold, Juno and Sword.
About 10 kilometres away, delve into the centuries-old history between England and Normandy (hint: it's rather fiery) with a trip to the famed medieval town of Bayeux, home of the even more famed Bayeux Tapestry. Painstakingly stitched over a vast 68-metre length in the 11th century to depict the story of the successful Norman invasion of England by William and his crew, the tapestry is now housed in the Musée de la Tapisserie de Bayeux, where you can marvel at it for a reasonable fee.
Within an hour of the site are the Pointe du Hoc, overlooking the English Channel, the seaside towns of Longues-Sur-Mer and Grandcamp-Maisy, Merville, where battle also raged on D-Day, the World War II battery of Crisbecq, and the Memorial Pegasus of Caen.
An Accrobranche treetop adventure park is nine kilometres away.
