Vacationing on the European Continent has changed a great deal over the years and if you should decide to camp in France you will not be disappointed. Camp sites have become more like resorts and with the added convenience of mobile campers and fully equipped family tents, camping will never be the same again.
Relaxing and being entertained is easy when you are in France, they cater for a huge tourist industry, and many very attractive camp sites in both country and coastal setting are available. You just pack up your tent or camper and move on to the next spot. This enables the holiday maker to see as many or as few different places as they like.
Resort-like French campsites are well organized and maintained, they have every facility you would ever need, and are great value for money. If you are careful how you choose your site when you camp in France, you should be able to find a good one that will allow you access to the coastline and the countryside, so that you can enjoy the best of both worlds.
All areas of France cater for campers, from the Alps to the Vendee, and even the Cote d’Azure! When you camp, everyone in the family can have a great time and you could even take Grandma and Grandad with you.
Royan and Gascony are only two of the areas worth a mention, every where in France has something special to offer. These areas are famous for long sandy beaches, high dunes, and even pine forests, a strange eclectic mixture of landscapes. Congnac vineyards dot the slopes of the River Charente valley and Royan is a popular choice for many campers. The forest of La Coubre surround this area, making it extremely picturesque, and the Island of Oléron, with its ancient citadel may be reach by bridge, this isle also has excellent beaches
Food and France work hand in hand, and restaurants proffer fine wines and even finer food to their guest. What money you save by camping, should be used to sample some of the local seafood and other fare. For really great wine making it is highly recommended that you pay a visit to the Médoc peninsula in Royan.
One of the most important oyster farming areas can be found just south of Bordeaux, and Bordeaux wines are also world recognized. Yes oysters are farmed, but perhaps in not the conventional sense! Bordeaux is also world renowned for the fine wine it produces and while the kids are entertaining themselves with organized activities at your campsite, you could be off enjoying some seriously adult fun, wine tasting.
