  • Forest site with views towards Île de Ré
  • Just outside the seaside town of La Faute-sur-Mer
  • Big aquatic area with heated pool, paddling pool and waterslide
Wend your scenic way south – and more south – along the Vendée shoreline, past La Tranche sur Mer and down to the 10 kilometres of forest-edged beach that make up the smashing little seaside town of La Faute-sur-Mer, on the southern end of the Atlantic Vendée coast. The fine sands and dunes here are splendid for sunbathing, surfing, windsurfing and sand yachting: check out the watersports centres in town for tips and more on these. Close to the beach is friendly and relaxed Camping La Siesta, just outside town with views towards Île de Ré. From here it's a snap to get to Vendée hikes in the surrounding dunes, marshes and forest, and the region's family attractions including adventure parks and an aquarium. A busy programme of activities runs on site in summer including themed dinners, bingo, pétanque tournaments, karaoke, kids' discos, water polo and aqua gym, along with a high season snack bar, shop and bar. Among the other options are a big aquatic area with heated pool, paddling pool and waterslide, a pétanque court and table tennis, a playground, multisports pitch and games room. The amenities blocks have toilets for adults and kids, showers, accessible facilities and an area for baby changing and bathing.

Local attractions

Bring your book and beach towel for hours of sunbathing on La Faute-sur-Mer's sands a short stroll from the site, or mosey along to the town's watersports centre half a kilometre away to seek advice on and kit for paddleboarding, land yachting, windsurfing and sailing. The 500-hectare pine forest surrounding the beach has an outdoor fitness circuit and paths for jogging, walking and cycling, all among a wildlife haven where you should see birds, deer and wild boar. Two natural reserves are near town too, the Pointe d'Arcay reserve to the south of the peninsula and the Belle Henriette to the north. Venturing along the coast from La Faute, the pretty harbour in L'Aiguillon-sur-Mer (two kilometres) is at the very southern end of the Atlantic coast; a few kilometres in the other direction is the hip seaside resort of La Tranche sur Mer and its 13 kilometres of award-winning beach. Quad biking, go-karting and paintballing are at Quad Evasion 85 two kilometres away.
