  • Family-friendly campsite in the Camargue on the Mediterranean coast
  • On the edge of Salin-de-Giraud; half an hours' drive from Arles
  • Large outdoor pool, mini farm, kids' play area, bar and restaurant
Sitting right on the edge of the Mediterranean and within half an hour's drive of the pretty town of Arles, Camping Les Bois Flottés is a family-friendly site with a lot of top-quality amenities. A non-exhaustive list of this Camargue campsite's on-site offerings includes a large outdoor pool with sun loungers, a mini farm with a range of cute animals, a kids' play area, sports pitches, a pétanque area, a bar and a restaurant. Guests staying here are also within easy walking distance of the historic Bouches-du-Rhône village of Salin-de-Giraud, where there is a range of places to relax and interesting old salt pans to explore. The six kilometres of white sand at nearby Piémanson beach, meanwhile, are a 10-minute drive or half-hour bike ride away from base. The Camargue is a truly remarkable landscape, with windswept beaches, old lighthouses, reed beds, lagunas and over 400 species of bird – and it's the only place in France where visitors can look forward to seeing pink flamingos. While it feels like a world apart, the area is actually pretty accessible, with major towns and cities like Nîmes (an hour), Montpellier (90 minutes) and Marseille (90 minutes) within easy driving distance of the site.

Local attractions

The surrounding area is great for adventurous activities like kitesurfing, and there a couple of dedicated shops and schools in the village for those who want to give the sport a try (Salin-de-Giraud also has a tourist office if you want to organise watersports a bit further afield). Active sorts might want to bring their bikes along too, as the Camargue has lots of attractive coastal roads and paths for pedalling. For a totally different but equally scenic set of landscapes, drive north towards the Alpilles, a range of low mountains and one of the prettiest parts of Provence. Les Baux-de-Provence (an hour's drive) is a fortified village with many great panoramas that should feature high on your itinerary, as should the Carrières des Lumières (an hour), a magical multimedia art installation located in a former quarry. The site is also within easy reach of Arles (30 minutes), an attractive town on the Rhone with a Roman amphitheatre, some great museums and streetscapes that inspired Vincent Van Gogh. More Roman heritage, including a large amphitheatre and temple, are also open to visitors in Nîmes, the prefecture of the Gard department, about an hour away by road.
