  • Family-friendly site five minutes’ walk from the beach in Arcachon Bay
  • 15 minutes by public transport to reach Arcachon and Gujan-Mestras
  • Play area; barbecues provided and restaurants a five-minute walk away
What’s on the menu at Camping ATC Routes du Monde La Hume? Direct access to a sandy beach, sublime sunsets over Arcachon Bay and plenty of oyster-eating in Gujan-Mestras, 15 minutes’ journey away by public transport, for sure. Water activities, coastal walks and more mouth-watering cuisine are likely too. You see, this small, quiet and family-friendly campsite is based in La Hume in Gironde, just five minutes’ walk from the town's beach, which is lined with tamarisk and pine trees. Access is through a gate located at the bottom of the site, so families, couples and friends have easy access to the fine sand and the water (which handily has supervised swimming). You might want to leave your car behind, as the site is also a 10-minute walk and a five-minute train (in total, a 15-minute journey) from the centre of Arcachon (a shopping hub with gorgeous 19th-century villas and a lively shopping quarter). In the other direction, Gujan-Mestras (a 10-minute walk and a five-minute train – 15 minutes in total) is a hub for oyster farming and has clusters of tasty oyster restaurants. Adventurous sorts can jump right into watersports in Arcachon Bay, whether they fancy sailing on a catamaran, windsurfing or surfing. No matter how wet or wild the activities, back at base, this peaceful place is a top spot to recharge your batteries (with a belly full of oysters, of course, or something else tasty that you’ve sourced from the restaurants within five minutes’ walk of the site).

What customers say

Great spot with beach access & handy to town. Staff are a treat! Facilities tidy but a bit old-school, some missing basics. Occasional power/access hiccups. Ideal quiet base for exploring.

Power optional grass and earth site

Liked Very close proximity to the beach and a great little play park on the sand. Our children also loved the trampoline on site. The site was well maintained with clean shower/toilet block. The staff were friendly and helpful. The pitches were spacious and it was quiet at nighttime. There was also a lovely breeze from the sea which kept us cool all night.

Disliked It would be great if the site had more facilities for motorhomes. For example, there is no facility for disposing of grey water on the site or anywhere nearby. The staff told us we would likely need to find an aire on the motorway. We only stayed for 2 nights so it wasn’t a major issue but would have been a real pain if we were staying for any longer.

Power optional grass and earth site

Liked Pitch size was ok for a small van only

Disliked Facilities were dated and grubby. The gates were locked during the day so you could only access the site again after 5pm and then they closed again at 8pm so you couldn’t get back in. The only option was to stay in the car park!

From the manager: Nous sommes désolés de constater que vous avez été insatisfait de votre séjour dans notre camping. Nous mettons tout en oeuvre pour accueillir tous les vacanciers sur notre terrain de camping, mais en ce début de saison, nous avons été contraints de déplacer et stocker du matériel dans des espaces inappropriés. Nous aurions apprécié que vous nous indiquiez que vous souhaitiez utiliser les sanitaires PMR et bien évidemment, ils auraient été disponibles dès votre arrivée. Ils le sont d'ailleurs maintenant, pour tous nos vacanciers qui nous rejoindront durant cet été 2025.

Disliked Only WiFi signal is by reception.
No toilet paper or soap in the toilets.
Electric supply is very poor. Had to turn off the fridge to use the kettle… kept tripping. You can only leave and re-enter the site when reception is open 8am-12pm and 5pm -7.30pm. after 8pm you have no chance. By the beach…. It is not a beach it is a tidal estuary

Power optional grass and earth site

Liked Pitches were really big, plenty of toilets.showers worked well.
2 minute walk to the beach. All you need within a 5 minute walk loads to do in the area. Loved it.

Disliked Could do with more showers but we went quiet season (may) so we didn't have to wait to use the shower. Take your toilet roll with you. Mens toilets didn't have seats which is normal for certain parts of france.

Local attractions

Kids (and big kids) can greet the lambs, calves and piglets at La Coccinelle (35 minutes’ walk). The farm park also has slides, log flume and rollercoasters for a bigger thrill. With more leisure parks and inland lakes in Arcachon (15 minutes’ journey by public transport), this site is set up nicely for family breaks. Being positioned right on the coastal path, there are lots of places your feet can take you, too. Wild landscapes include the Dune of Pilat (around two hours and 20 minutes’ walk), the tallest sand dune in Europe, or the Réserve Ornithologique Du Teich (an hour and 45 minutes’ walk or 15 minutes’ drive), a favourite dwelling spot for a variety of birds. Take the ferry over to Le Phare du Cap Ferret (two hours’ and 35 minutes’ walk and ferry ride) to get some fabulous views of the bay (after climbing 258 steps). Port de la Teste (45 minutes’ walk) is closer by and packed with oyster farmers lugging around oyster sacks, as well as a fair few waterfront oyster restaurants.
