Camping Atlantica

Three heated pools await swimmers of all ages, while deck chairs and umbrellas add a further touch of luxury camping to one of France’s top campsites. Further options are found at a variety of beaches within easy reach of Atlantica. For children, Cenitz beach, 600m away offers gentle waves, while 100m further on Mayarco beach has a bar and evening entertainment. Surfers take a shuttle to Lifitenia beach just 1km away.

Authentic Basque dishes are prepared daily and may be enjoyed at the warm and friendly camp restaurant and bar, or as take-away meals to be savoured in the mobile home. A large variety of pizzas, tapas and pintxos prepared exclusively from local produce also tempt the taste buds. The Camp Hotspot ensures fresh bread daily, while a supermarket is situated beside Atlantica. A wide selection of sporting activities will help to burn off the calories, including football and handball and teens will love the camp’s games room that offers pinball and video games.

Those who wish to do some exploring during their camping holiday will delight in the centuries-old villages that are a 45-minute drive away. Espelette is renowned for the garlands of chillies that adorn almost every wall and are found in most Basque dishes. The 13th-century village of Aînhoa with its single street is another place of interest.
