Family campsite 20 minutes’ drive from Plage de Kerfany in Finistère
Half an hour’s drive to Quimper and Concarneau; Doëlan 20 minutes
Heated swimming pool, terraced snack bar and grocery store in summer

You’re guaranteed a warm welcome at Camping à l'Abri de l'Océan, a family-run and family-friendly site in Finistère, southern Brittany. When staying at this relaxed spot, you can be on the beach at Plage de Kerfany in 20 minutes’ drive or in historic Quimper for a day of sightseeing in half an hour. Leafy, landscaped pitches are shaded by mature trees and portioned by hedges for extra privacy. Each has an electric hook-up, with a water supply nearby. Other handy facilities include showers, washing-up sinks and washing machines to keep everybody looking as good as new. To keep guests happy and entertained on site, a trampoline, a mini-golf course, pétanque court and multi-sports ground will have you all bouncing about and running around. In July and August, the heated swimming pool opens for use, and there’s a full schedule of entertainment for kids (games in the pool and other sporty happenings) and adults (aqua-aerobic classes and evening sing-songs, among others). Gas, charcoal and electric barbecues are allowed on site, but your catering options increase with the opening of the bar every night in summer (Monday and Friday evenings only out of season), as well as a snack bar (expect burgers, frites and pizza) and a grocery store selling fresh bread every morning.

Liked: Friendly reception and bar staff, good choice of beers etc. Good location for visiting the coast.

Disliked: Bit of a smell from possibly drains near the main office made sitting outside on our pitch unpleasant.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: The owner was so lovely and so patient with our terrible french! The showers were warm and clean. Plenty of washing up facilities and a washing machine and tumble dryer for €5 each. The pool was a massive hit with my two children and so was the pool table.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you very much for your opinion on our campsite. We hope to see you again very soon to enjoy our new indoor and heated swimming pool (opening May 2024).

Local attractions

There’s much to discover in this spectacular corner of Finistère, with its wind-carved coastline of coves and rocky beaches. As well as taking a dip off Plage de Kerfany, you can easily drive to Plage de la Roche Percée to admire its striking sea arch, or end the day at Plage de Trenez (all 20 minutes’ drive) for amazing sunset views over the Atlantic Ocean. The jagged headland of the Crozon Peninsula (an hour) is a haven for active types. Take the GR34 hiking trail from the Cap de la Chèvre (90 minutes) to spot the islands of Molène and Ouessant, or if mountain-biking is your thing, you’ll definitely appreciate the steep gradients of Ménez-Hom (an hour and 10 minutes), a volcanic peak with views right to the ocean. Finistère is also steeped in history. Riverside Quimperlé (10 minutes) is an historic town with mellow stone churches and a lively café life, while the pretty little port of Doëlan (20 minutes) and its lighthouse sit on the Laïta river. Head for Quimper to tour its Gothic-era Saint-Corentin Cathedral, Romanesque priory and medieval city centre, or make the trip to Concarneau (both half an hour) to stroll its austere ramparts for marina and ocean views.
