Camping La Canadienne, Gironde - Visit the Bassin d'Arcachon, it's another world...
Sited at the northern end of this sheltered bay, the campsite has something for everyone: pool, sports activities and local walks. Further afield, you can sample fresh seafood and visit the oyster beds in the local oyster-farming villages, take a boat to Cap Ferret passing the Île aux Oiseaux, the characteristic cabanes tchanquées - wooden huts built on stilts – and pinasses – local fishing boats en route. Or simply marvel at the majestic Dune du Pyla, the highest sand dune in Europe.
The + points
The heated boat-shaped swimming pool.
The town of Arcachon with its mild climate and unique attractions.
The cycle path through the pine forest which start from the campsite.



" I love: Close to town and bus route "
" I love: Excellent camp site "
" I love: On arrival our we were asked which pitch we would prefer, because my wife wanted to be near the disabled toilet facilities.. We had a large private pitch not far from the pool it was very quite. But I expect it gets very busy during school holidays as its not a huge pool. The shower/toilet facilities were some of the best/cleanest we've seen in many yrs of camping. Plus toilet roll was provided, very unusual in France. A lovely clean site with lots of greenery .Plenty of pretty and interesting places to visit nearby, good level cycle route direct from site. "
" I love: Clean well run site. Lots of cycle tracks so a good base to explore region "
" I love: Location; pool; shower/toilet facilities; bread and pastries delivered to the pitch. "

Come and visit La Canadienne in the Bassin d'Arcachon where Karine and Richard will show you the 100km of cycle paths that crisscross the Gironde area. One route, for example, leaves from the campsite and runs through lovely countryside to the village of Andernos-les-Bains, where you’ll find a great market. An “Accueil vélo” campsite since 2011, La Canadienne provides its own bike hire service and guarantees a cycle-friendly welcome.

And after a hard day’s sport why not treat yourself to a trip to the Bassin d’Arcachon for a bit of sightseeing and a plate of the region’s delicious oysters?
