  • Family-friendly site close to scenic forest, coast and marsh lands
  • A five-minute drive to Saint-Jean-de-Monts; 25-minute walk to beach
  • Heated outdoor swimming pool and paddling pool plus a mini waterpark
Zip between the beach, forest and marsh landscapes during a stay at Camping Plein Sud, a family-friendly site in the Vendée a 25-minute walk from the Plage de la Parée du Jonc beach and a five-minute drive from the seaside resort of Saint-Jean-de-Monts. This Pays de la Loire park has a heated open-air swimming pool, plus a kids’ paddling pool and a small waterpark, for spending days cooling off outdoors; active types might like to flit between here and the playgrounds, multisports pitches, games room and bowling green. For chilling out, the bar has a big-screen TV and a library’s available. For livelier times, entertainment’s organised in high season and in the quieter months access to the indoor swimming pool, sauna, hammam and whirlpool at the park’s sister site is free of charge. The course at Golf de Saint-Jean-de-Monts is a 10-minute drive away for sessions on the green. Activities also off site include horse riding, windsurfing and sea fishing at the dune-backed Plage de la Parée du Jonc beach, sandwiched between the Plage de la Davière and Plage de la Tonnellé beaches. Wander down to these scenic spots on foot or rent one of the park’s bikes and zoom over in approximately five minutes. You could also flit to the Feeling Forest trails, a 20-minute drive away, for roams under the boughs of trees. Camping Plein Sud also has a morning bakery delivery service for tasty breakfasts, and a grocery shop selling essentials like milk. There’s also a laundry area and baby-changing amenities.

Liked: Très bon camping tranquille non et non bruyant au niveau des sanitaires très bien entretenu les emplacements sont spacieux et ombragé si on le demande lors de la réservation

Disliked: La piscine est très bien le seul bémol et qu'il faudrait revoir le dallage de sol il y a beaucoup de travail car lorsque l'on monte sur certaines dalles elle se lève cela peut être dangereux mise à part ce défaut le reste est très convenable pour le tarif

Local attractions

Saint-Jean-de-Monts (five minutes' drive) is a lovely coastal town with lots of sandy beaches including the popular Plage des Demoiselles and Grand Plage. Beyond the seaside, take on the trails in the canal-covered Marais Breton wetlands and salt marshes, then climb up to the Kulmino water tower for views of said landscapes. For more nature, the Bay of Biscay's Noirmoutier island is a 30-minute drive away – get here over the Passage du Gois causeway, only accessible at low tide, to check out the prehistoric artefacts at the 12th-century Château de Noirmoutier and the underwater creatures at the Sealand Aquarium. Bounce over to the beaches here before seeking out some more at Ile d'Yeu, an island reachable by boat from Fromentine (15 minutes). Once you’re done breathing in the salty sea air, aim for the amusement parks in the vicinity, like Mickey Boy Park (10 minutes) and Atlantic Toboggan waterpark (15 minutes). Famed spots like the Planète Sauvage zoo and the Puy de Fou theme park are a 50-minute drive and an hour and a half, respectively.
