Are the sailing facilities based on the campsite?

This is really dependent on the campsite in question. Some are based on the beachside with yachts, boats and canoes at your doorstep, while others are a few miles out from the site. River and lake sailing campsites are usually onsite. If distance from the water is a deal-breaker, contact your campsite and get confirmation.

Are there lifeguards based around the sailing facilities?

Lifeguards are usually always available when you take a swim in the pool or sea areas, especially where children are swimming. With regards to sailing, you have the coastguard as protection in the ocean, while on rivers and lakes it’s important to check the availability of lifeguards with the campsite before you book – and always wear a life-vest!

Can I bring my dog to a campsite with sailing facilities?

Of course you can! Furry family is always welcome to join in the fun as most campsites allow pets to tag along. Each site will have its own rules with regards to area access and possibly other restrictions.

What makes booking at campsites with sailing facilities so special?

Apart from the obvious joy of sailing, you will find most campsites based near water are of a high star rating, offering many more amenities than traditional campsites including activities, superior dining facilities, Wi-Fi, air conditioning and high-end accommodation to make your stay far more luxurious than expected.

Is there medical care at the campsite for sunburn, insect bites or sprained ankles?

Accidents do happen, but you never have to worry as campsites always have the means to take care of you. Expect fully-trained first-aid staff, a first-aid station and ambulance access in case of a larger emergency.

With sailing at the centre of this camping trip, why not expand and include some other water-based sports in your itinerary? Explore locations such as Saint-Raphaël and Saint-Hilaire-de-Riez that offer fishing and surfing with lessons for the kids to get used to being in the water.

Take the family out on a horse-riding trail

Many campsites offer an opportunity to take a horse out for a ride around the trails of the region to enjoy the natural surroundings. Explore the woodlands of Canet-en-Roussillon or the rocky coast and sandy beaches of Vendée on the back of your gentle steed.

Enjoy coastal views from above while paragliding

Due to breathtaking locations near coastlines, your camping site with sailing facilities will often have additional entertainment and fun activities. Try your hand at something new like kite-surfing! Or why not look into paragliding in the Crozon peninsula? Perhaps the ecosystem of Corsica is more your thing for a really spectacular view of the region.
