  • Family-friendly site in the popular seaside resort of Bénodet
  • A 300-metre walk from the sea and 400 metres from Benodet's main beach
  • Waterpark with waterslides; bar, shop and multisports ground
Not one… not two… not even three – but four golden sandy Brittany beaches are within a paltry kilometre's amble from family-friendly seaside site Camping de la Plage in Finistère. It's 15 minutes' stroll from the seaside resort of Bénodet where the Odet river meets the sea, 300 metres from the water and 400 from Benodet's main beach. Shellfish, shrimp and crab fishing, watersports and simply lounging on the sands are all exceptionally easy from this southern Brittany coast setting next to these four golden beaches; in town, there are art galleries and museums, a casino and crêperies to keep you occupied, while mountain biking, climbing and quite a few other outdoor activities are available nearby. But you'll likely want to laze around on site for some time too… For Camping de la Plage has a big and quite fab waterpark, made up of a covered pool, two outdoor pools, two waterslides, two hot tubs and a kids' paddling pool – plus outdoor aqua gym sessions in July and August. Among the many other facilities are a bar, an outdoor fitness circuit and a small indoor fitness room, a multisports court, a pétanque court, indoor and outdoor ping pong tables and a games room with billiards and table football. If you're hankering after some organised entertainment after long sunny days at the beach, karaoke, dances and themed evenings are held in July and August. Among the site's amenities are an accessible block with toilets, hot showers and a baby bathroom, and a launderette with washers and dryers. Barbecues are allowed.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Staff friendly and good location for the beach ect.

Disliked: No toilet paper, soap or hand dryer in the toilets. No shop/bar open on arrival. Tent pitches overgrown with large brambles and uncut grass. Not many loungers or chairs at the pool, despite plenty of space. Bar ok in the evening, but punch ball machine gives wrong atmosphere. Pitches small and close to ones opposite. Food limited to paninis on the evening we stayed there.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Pool area - Local cycle routes Beach Campsite staff are very helpful Good venue, with lots to do in the surrounding area - Bénodet is a small seaside and harbour village that is very good - campsite is busy but not overly busy. I would recommend this campsite to friends and family.

Disliked: Internet connection is poor and the phone signal for UK roaming is poor, but this is more of an issue with UK providers

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Les emplacements spaticieux, la proximité des multiples sanitaires. Le complexe aquatique et la gentillesse de l'accueil.

Disliked: Attention suivant les emplacements certains trop ombragé lorsqu'il fait pas trop chaud et pas possible de capter avec une parabole. Mais cela ne gâche en rien des vacances sans télévision. Réseaux téléphone parfois très faible et Wi-Fi pas hyper efficace.

Local attractions

A few days at least should be spent on the four sandy stretches local to the site: the Benodet beaches of Trez, with beach club and beach cabin as well as catamaran and windsurf rental, 400 metres away; the protected lagoon of La Letty, 500 metres away; Saint Gilles, the spot for shellfish, shrimp and crab fishing, also 500 metres away, and Coq, a kilometre away facing the Odet river estuary. Within easy ambling distance too is a casino, within 600 metres, and the Benodet Seaside Museum within a kilometre, showcasing the town's relationship with the sea and how it's changed throughout the centuries. Benodet Marina, the departure point for trips to the Glénan Islands and Sainte Marine, as well as the starting point for many Brittany races and regattas, is two kilometres away. Also easy to get to from here is Quimper (17 kilometres), Finistère's capital and an anciently traditional city with cobbled streets, half-timbered buildings, footbridges and many residents wandering around in traditional Breton dress. Have a look too at the cathedral of Saint-Corentin, with its bendy middle (go see) and the nearby museum of fine arts, home to hundreds of paintings alongside regular events and shows. More must-see old piles are at Concarneau, 19 kilometres away; if your tastes tend more towards nature hikes, the Armorique Regional Natural Park is under 60 kilometres from Benodet.
