Omaha beach

  • Family-friendly site under two kilometres from the coast
  • Within five kilometres of Omaha beach and 10 kilometres from Bayeux
  • Playground and shop on site; barbecues permitted
Two top Normandy destinations are a breeze to get to from family-friendly Camping L'Hypo'Camp: the World War II memorial of Omaha beach (five kilometres) and the spectacular sight of the Bayeux Tapestry, within 10. Omaha beach, the one five kilometres away, has a watersports centre with sailing activities. When you return back to base, there are more ways to unwind, as the quiet site has a children's play area with a seesaw and swings. Barbecues are allowed on site too for alfresco dinners, and there's the convenience of having a small grocery shop on site if you need to gather ingredients. There are also other amenities including two well-maintained shower and toilet blocks. L'Hypo'Camp is outside the coastal commune of Colleville-sur-Mer, just under 40 kilometres from Calvados department capital Caen.

What customers say

Great location, clean, friendly site for D-Day sites/Omaha Beach. Spacious, private pitches. Helpful staff. Clean facilities with good hot showers, though some lacked seats/paper. On-site bakery is a plus. Mostly positive, few mention crowds or minor facility quirks.

Powered grass campsite

Liked Really nice family run site close to Omaha beach. The showers and toilets were nice and clean and worked well. Good size flat pitches. There is the facility to order bread and pastries from reception which arrive next morning. We only tried the baguettes but they were lovely and very reasonably priced. There is a small bar area with hot food which we didn’t make use of but looked well priced too. Would definitely return.

Liked On arrival the staff were friendly, between them they spoke French, English, Spanish and German. We settled our remaining fees which could be done by cash or card.
Reception has a little shop with essentials, and they offer a service to collect bread and pastries from a local boulangerie the following morning if you pre-order.

The pitch was clean and well kept, electrical points were close (<5m ). The site is small, with a mix of fixed caravans, motorhome and tent pitches, the area is covered by lush trees providing shade during sunny days. Toilet and Washing facilities are very good, they were regularly cleaned and appeared to be almost brand new.

Wifi is included in your stay,

Disliked You will require some form of transport to get to the nearest towns as there is not a lot in the local villages.

Local attractions

Normandy tourist destinations of Omaha beach and the Bayeux Tapestry see hundreds of thousands of visitors to this region every year. The Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial is at the site's local town of Colleville-sur-Mer, overlooking the beach; at Bayeux, take time to see the town as well as its famous tapestry, stopping off at the 11th-century cathedral, the Memorial Museum of the Battle of Normandy, and, if you're here for World War II remembrance, the British war cemetery just outside town. The fishing, horse riding and canoeing within the same distance should provide plenty of entertainment by the coast, as should the local sands within a kilometre, and the fishing boat views from the harbour of Port-en-Bessin, three kilometres from the site. The World War II memorial and museum of La Pointe du Hoc within 20 minutes' drive of the site. Also, remember to take your chance to have a tour of the Isigny Sainte Mère Coopérative (20 minutes' drive) cheese and butter factory.
