Get set for a whirlwind of action if you’re staying at Camping Europa – this site near Saint Gilles Croix de Vie has heaps of family-friendly activities to keep even the busiest of bees amused for many a day.
Around the playgrounds there’s plenty of kit for kids of all ages, including a trampoline, a miniature wooden train and a climbing frame with nets and acrobatic course. There’s a fab outdoor pool area with two heated pools with a water play area, four waterslides and a blissful bubbling Jacuzzi bench. And you need not fear a passing cloud or few – aquatic antics can continue at the indoor pool, paddling pool and water play area, or you can retreat to the well-equipped games room.
Swing by here in the school hols and you’ll easily fill hours with all manner of organised activities – sports tournaments, zumba classes and aqua gym for the grownups, crafts, games and dancing for the small sorts. Pedal karts, foam parties and laser games have all featured on recent schedules, as have canoeing, paintballing and tree-climbing outings. And the activities don’t stop at sundown – evenings tend to be packed with live music, themed meals, quizzes and other family-friendly fun.
For eats, you’re welcome to fire up a barbie or trot over to the bar-restaurant to acquire snacks, ice creams or meals to eat in or take away (the homemade pizzas come highly recommended).
