Emilie's opinion

The Camping Parc et Plage is a quiet campsite, surrounded by greenery. It is a very family-friendly campsite and 100% pedestrian, no cars allowed! Upon arrival, you can unload your car at the entrance parking using the trolleys available — practical and easy. The water park, open from April to September, delights both children and adults. The sea and the beaches are right at the corner of the campsite, just cross the road. A small airfield is located to the north, very lightly used, so in very rare cases you might hear a plane. For cycling enthusiasts, the Toulon–Lavandou cycle path passes right in front!
