Let walks and bike rides, bathing and relaxation add their rhythm to your holiday on the Occitan coast, both within your campsite and in the surrounding area.

Visit Villeneuve-lès-Maguelone with the family
What do the kids love most at Villeneuve-lès-Maguelone? The endless beaches of soft fine sand, stretching for nearly 9km between Palavas and Frontignan. The wildest beaches along the Hérault coast are said to be those at Villeneuve! Getting out on the water on a standup paddleboard, enjoying a picnic in the shade of a parasol or building the best-ever sandcastles; there’s no shortage of activities to fill every minute of your family holiday, here on the seaside beaches.
And if you’re travelling with apprentice adventurers brimming with energy, let them work it off at the Rochers de Maguelone, a leisure park hidden in the heart of the forest. Whatever their age they’ll love climbing through the branches of the tree-top adventure trails, shooting at top speed down the giant zip wire and giving battle in a laser park that’s as large as life and twice as natural!
Visit Villeneuve-lès-Maguelone as a couple
Villeneuve-lès-Maguelone, with its magical threesome of garrigue-lagoons-Mediterranean coast, is pretty hard to beat for a walk through the heart of nature when the light is at its most beautiful. There are so many surprising landscapes to discover, such as the thousand year-old Maguelone Cathedral, isolated on its peninsula where time seems to have stopped. To reach it, pass through the dramatic Porte de Maguelone that guards the entrance between the Pierre Blanche and Le Prévost lagoons, home to flamingos, seagulls and herons. The perfect spot to feel cut off from the world!
And, the icing on the cake... visiting the cathedral is free of charge and can even end with a meal for two on the terrace overlooking the sea. It’s difficult to imagine a prettier setting for your romantic getaway!
