Playground

  • Close to the Bay of the Somme; bike paths to the coast nearby
  • Sailing, kayaking, fishing and seal spotting all available nearby
  • Playground, crazy golf, pétanque and summer events
Pondering passing some time in Picardie? Fancy taking a trip to the spectacular Bay of the Somme – for boat outings, seal spotting and peaceful bayside pedalling? Stay close to the water at Pendé's Camping De La Baie, right by the region's cycle paths leading direct to the coast and its bay. As you might have figured, Camping De La Baie's coastal locale has it sorted for watery, sporty and cultural days out easily accessible nearby, like sailing and kayaking on the bay, fishing along the shore, day tripping around seaside towns or – much recommended – kicking up sand with a horse ride along the beach. The cycle paths nearby run straight to the bay; bike hire is available on site. Good swimming beaches in the locale include Cayeux-sur-Mer and Saint-Valery-sur-Somme (within 10 minutes' drive) and Le Crotoy 20 minutes' drive away. And if you fancy the sandy beaches of Côte d'Opale, Fort-Mahon-Plage and Quend Plage are some fine options; they're both a 35-minute drive Back at base, De La Baie is a peaceful, pet-friendly and family-friendly place, with a good range of facilities including crazy golf, free wifi, volleyball and pétanque courts, ping pong tables and a playground. Events like gigs, pétanque tournaments and karaoke are arranged for guests in July and August. Amenities include a toilet block accessible for guests with disabilities, hot showers, gas sales and a washing-up area. A bakery delivers fresh produce to the site every morning in high season; for other foodie supplies there are shops and restaurants in Saint-Valery-sur-Somme (10 minutes away by car or bike).

From the manager: Hello, thank you for taking the time to write a review, we are sorry if certain points did not allow you to fully enjoy your stay. During your one-night stay, 23 pitches were rented and no one filled up with cold water....it has been several years since we removed the toilet seats. This is to make cleaning easier and honestly you are the 3rd person to complain about it....we are sorry if you were disappointed on these points, we sincerely hope that you were able to enjoy the Bay of Somme.

Powered grass campsite (privilege)

Liked: Nette Betreiber des Platzes. Alle Einrichtungen sind sauber und funktional.

Disliked: Weit ab von Bäckern und anderen Lebensmittelgeschäften. Und deshalb etwas zu teuer. Unser Platz war zudem sehr uneben. Offenbar war er auch nur teilweise befestigt, denn das Wohnmobil sackte sehr stark ein.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hallo, wie auf unserer Website und beim Stellplatz angegeben, sind wir 2,5 km von Saint Valery sur Somme entfernt (3,5 km von der Bäckerei, die uns in der Hochsaison jeden Morgen und im September an den Wochenenden beliefert). Das schätzen die Kunden, denn nur einen Steinwurf von der Stadt entfernt (15 Minuten mit dem Fahrrad) bleibt es ruhig. Wir hoffen, dass Sie dieses Detail bei Ihrer Reservierung gesehen haben. Wir hoffen auch, dass Sie die Preise sorgfältig gelesen haben, bevor Sie Ihre Reservierung bestätigen. Es ist wahr, dass der Regen während Ihres Aufenthalts es Ihnen nicht ermöglichte, Ihren Aufenthalt in vollen Zügen zu genießen, und dass Ihr Standort instabil wurde. Das tut uns leid. Aufrichtig

Peaceful, friendly, clean, nr St-Valery-s-Somme, Baie-de-S wetlands

Liked: Delightful staff - all of them - clean facilities - very quiet at night. Bread/croissants/pain-au-chocolat, if ordered, in the morning. Play area for small kids. Walkable to Baie de Somme wetlands. Bikeable to St-Valery-sur-Somme, which is beautiful, historic and full of nice places to eat.

Disliked: Wifi is extra and flaky. Roaming signal good.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hello, thank you very much for your rating. Indeed, wifi is extra because we are obliged to subcontract this service. See you soon. Sincerely

Great campsite in a nice area.…

Powered grass campsite

Liked: Staff were friendly.

Disliked: Our evening showers were cold. I know its not the campsites fault but a fellow camper left their dogs poo on our pitch. This could happen anywhere but it didn't help us enjoy our stay

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your comment. We are sorry that someone is letting their dog run on your site. You should have warned us. I had no comments about the showers, it's surprising especially since you only stayed one night, but should have warned us. However, a 6/10 for a judgment of just one short night on things that you didn't even warn us about is really low...and to advise against our campsite to a friend for that is really surprising I hope you find a campsite that meets your expectations another time. Sincerely

Great easy going site for all.

Liked: Very calm, quiet campsite. Toilets and showers always clean and not busy, plenty of hot water. Friendly and welcoming staff on site, nice snack bar open Saturdays & Wednesdays and a nice playground for kids. It's about 3km from Saint Valery sur Somme, so plan to either cycle or drive if you want to go into the town (which I'd reccommend) there is paid parking in the town, free after 7pm and a huge free car park just on the edge of town with a 10 - 15 min walk. I'd definitely recommend a stay here!

Local attractions

After some days cantering along the beach on horseback pretending you're on a film set, investigate the other options in the Camping De La Baie surrounds, on and around the Bay of the Somme and inland around Pendé and the villages and towns of Picardie. Ask the Camping De La Baie team about kayak hire or boat trips to get out onto the water – do keep an eye out for seals on your way – or hire a bike on site and pedal to and along the coast. Sea fishing is available in the bay or inland at countryside rivers and ponds. The Aquaclub de Belle Dune waterpark at Fort-Mahon-Plage should make a big splash if you're on the coast with the kids: on offer are indoor and outdoor pools, waterslides, wave machines and waterfalls, and a sauna, Jacuzzi and wellness centre for a more pampery grownup vibe.
