  • Well-equipped site a 10-minute walk from Mimizan Plage’s sandy beach
  • Promenade Fleurie 10 minutes’ drive; Écomusée de Marquèze 45 minutes
  • Aquatic park with waterslides; kids’ club; restaurant; dog park
No false advertising here: Camping La Plage (which translates as ‘the beach’) sits within sniffing distance of the Atlantic Ocean, less than half a mile (that’s about 10 minutes on foot) from the wide, sandy beach of Mimizan Plage, in the Landes region of south-western France. If you’re into watersports – and especially if you’re into watersports that necessitate strong breezes (surfing, kitesurfing, wing foiling…) – this is a pretty sweet spot: the Bay of Biscay is known for its windy conditions. And with plenty of surf schools along the beach, nobody needs to feel left out of the action. But before you break out the surfboard, you might want to explore your home for the holidays. Shaded by pine trees, Camping La Plage scores highly in terms of practical features, with a mini-market, a bakery for your breakfast pastries, a bar and a restaurant serving local specialities (plus a toilet block with disabled facilities, hot-water showers and a launderette). In addition, this is a canine-friendly site, with its own dog park. Entertainment-wise, you’re also sorted here: you can pack the children off to kids’ club (or let them loose in the play area) while you pamper yourself with a treatment at the on-site beauty institute; if you feel active, you can rally the troops and challenge fellow guests to a game of football or basketball, or to a mini-golf tournament. And then there’s the aquatic park, with heated indoor and outdoor pools, waterslides and a splash zone for the kids, and lots of sun loungers.

Local attractions

Landes Adventure Park (10 minutes’ drive) has treetop courses for all ages and abilities. Young children can potter about the discovery trail, growing confident on net swings and rope bridges, while adults can face their fear of heights head on by having a go on tightrope walks and ziplines. At La Promenade Fleurie (10 minutes) you can stroll among fragrant seasonal flowers (including hydrangeas and dahlias) and colourful exotic plants. After exploring this luxuriant garden, head to the Étang d'Aureilhan pond, where you can embark on a circular lakeside walk that takes you past a beach and a spot where you can hire a canoe. In addition to woodland hiking and cycling paths, the Landes de Gascogne Regional Natural Park (half an hour) is home to the Écomusée de Marquèze (45 minutes), an open-air museum illustrating life in the region in the 1800s (including original buildings and recreated landscapes), plus the striking works of La Forêt d’Art Contemporain trail.
