Arvert, the ideal holiday destination!
This summer, come and discover the landscapes of the Arvert peninsula when camping with Sandaya! Let the ocean beaches, La Coubre forest, salt and freshwater marshes form the backdrop to your most fabulous adventures. So hurry and book your holiday rental in a mobile home, a lodge tent or on a tree-planted pitch and discover holidays with all the tang of the sea, on the sublime Côte Sauvage!
Between the estuaries of the Seudre and the Gironde, you’ll love being able to combine exploring the scenery and sampling seafood. Lying between the beaches of La Tremblade and La Palmyre, Arvert lies at the crossroads between the salt and freshwater marshes, where the best oysters of Charente-Maritime are raised. And when it comes to camping, relaxation and leisure activities are always in perfect balance. Dive into the heated swimming pools of the bathing area or stretch out and unwind on the poolside solarium terrace. With a grand tournament in the offing on the multisports ground, the kids will be busy making new friends in the free mini clubs: everyone’s a winner when camping with Sandaya!
Visit Arvert with the family
Just opposite the Île d’Oléron, the Arvert peninsula and its capital offer a host of delightful discovery trails for your family holiday. If you’re travelling with teenagers, take up the challenge of the Côte Sauvage beaches and their waves: surfing is the favourite local sport! Or settle down between the dunes to admire the show and soak up the beauty of the scenery, between pines and ocean.
With little ones in tow, opt for the beaches of the Bonne-Anse bay, its calm water is heaven for little swimmers. And why not follow the coastline as far as Royan and treat yourselves to a relaxing break as you gaze out towards the Cordouan lighthouse?
Visit Arvert as a couple
Any holiday worth its name means a host of new experiences! And when it comes to combining pleasure for the eyes and delight for the palate, you’ve found your perfect destination in Arvert. Just the two of you, make the most of your camping holiday to sample the region’s most renowned oysters, the famous Marennes-Oléron “fines de claires”. Truly mouth-watering!
It’s also the ideal occasion to enjoy a pleasant trip through the Arvert marshes, all the way to the oyster harbours of Coux and La Grève. As the multicoloured fishing huts catch your eye, you know you’re on the right road! A haven of peace where otters and herons have set up home, perhaps you’ll be lucky enough to spot one along your way...
