FRANCE  Gascony- Messanges- Camping Le Vieux Port

The golden surfing beaches of the South Atlantic coast run from south of Bordeaux to the Spanish border. Just over an hour north of the Pyrénées and set in the pine forest of Les Landes, Camping Le Vieux Port is an exceptional resort with first class facilities. The swimming pool complex was re-developed for the 2009 season and it is now one of the largest campsite water parks in France. There are excellent opportunities to play sports as well as an exciting adventure playground. There is great daytime and evening entertainment with a regular outdoor disco during high season. Shopping is easy and relaxing with numerous boutiques, stalls and a well-stocked supermarket. The beach (with a good surf) is 400 yards from the campsite – a pleasant walk through the dunes or an enjoyable ride on the campsite train, which shuttles between the beach and camping areas during high season. About a mile from the campsite a forest cycle path links many of the pretty market towns like Messanges and Vieux Boucau. For a tranquil alternative to the beach try one of the inland lakes for swimming or water sports.
