Camping Normandy

Normandy is renowned for its rich history and heritage – unique in France – including the D-Day beaches and Mont-Saint-Michel. It is a popular destination for both history buffs and holidaymakers seeking peace and quiet in the heart of the countryside. With its diverse landscapes of chalk cliffs and wild coastlines, the region offers a rejuvenating break. Staying at a 4- or 5-star campsite in Normandy means choosing to get away from city life and immerse yourself in a haven of peace by the sea.

Enjoy an unforgettable family holiday in Normandy at a luxury campsite on the coast of the English Channel. With a water park, indoor heated swimming pools, entertainment throughout the day and other high-quality facilities, your break – whether as a couple, with friends or with family – promises to be both fun and relaxing!

Depending on what you’re looking to get out of your holiday in Normandy, head for the destination that’s right for you: whether it’s a cultural break, a chance to get away from it all in the countryside, or an active holiday… There’s something for everyone:

• Whilst camping in Calvados, Normandy, discover the history of the D-Day beaches, such as Omaha Beach, Juno Beach, Sword Beach and Gold Beach. It will also be a chance to visit the towns of Deauville, Cabourg and Honfleur if you have time! When camping in Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer, you’re close to all these major attractions, so you can combine exploring the region’s history with plenty of swimming during your holiday;
• In the Manche region, it’s all about the untouched, wild landscapes. Spend a day visiting the fishing ports of Barfleur and Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue with your partner. The next day, set out for Mont-Saint-Michel – a must-see during your family holiday! The following day? It’s time to get out into nature for a hike to admire the surrounding wilderness!

Whether you’re staying at a 4-star or a 5-star campsite in Normandy, you won’t have time to get bored with all the entertainment and activities on offer at these top-class facilities.

When it comes to water sports, why not give a new one a go this summer: sand yachting, stand-up paddleboarding, sea kayaking or kitesurfing from the beaches of Calvados or the Cotentin. Sports enthusiasts will love these water sports!
