Seaside camping

Seaside holidays

There are plenty of good reasons to opt for a mobile home rental by the sea. First, you’ll have a choice of where to go swimming. One moment you can enjoy the quieter setting of our water park, and the next you can make the most of the waves and water activities. Diving, surfing or kitesurfing, jet-skiing, windsurfing, sea kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding... there are so many ways to fill your days with family, friends or your special someone!

Another plus point: the coasts are teeming with extraordinary spots to explore. How about the Dune du Pyla, the Bay of Arcachon, the Île de Ré, the secluded coves of Corsica, the natural caves on the Algarve, the iconic resorts on the Côte d’Azur, the Camargue...? Your seaside holidays are sure to fill you with wonder.

The tricky part is not planning what to do but choosing where to go!

How do you decide on a seaside campsite?

From Lagos to Le Crotoy, via the Balearic Islands, Biarritz, the Costa Brava, Sérignan-Plage, Saint-Tropez, Biscarrosse and Saint-Jean-de-Monts... At Yelloh! Village, you can opt for a campsite rental or pitch at an array of coastal destinations, each with its own beautifully distinctive seascape.

But how do you choose? First, think about the setting and the climate you want. A camping holiday with an ocean climate will be different, depending on whether you opt for the Iberian Peninsula or the South of France. Some love the ocean waves, while others prefer the tranquillity of the Mediterranean.

It also depends on what you expect from the campsite. Here are a few criteria to help you narrow down your search:

• The size and atmosphere of the campsite
• The surrounding landscape
• The amenities and entertainment for your children: paddling pools, water slides, children’s clubs, etc.
• Your means of transport
• The distance from home and duration of your seaside holiday
• The on-site services
• The type of visits and activities you enjoy: cultural excursions, water-based activities, fishing, walks, basking in the sun...

When is the best time to go camping by the sea?

One of the key factors in deciding when to take your seaside camping holiday is the season. In high season, you won’t mind the heat so much when you opt for a seaside camping holiday. With the water parks and the sea, it’s easier to cool off when the sun is baking hot! However, this is also the busiest period. The seaside resorts are packed with holidaymakers.

Naturally, in low season, there are fewer people. And the weather is more pleasant in most regions. Even better, around the Mediterranean, the South Atlantic and on the Portuguese and Spanish coasts, temperatures remain between 10°C and 20°C almost all year round. A great idea when you want to escape the winter cold!
