Ruim opgezette camping dichtbij zee. Mooi zwembad en leuke animatie, maar niet teveel aanwezig.
Camping Le Bois de Valmarie
General information
Relax between the mountains and the sea
Swimming in the Mediterranean, taking a dip in a beautiful pool or strolling through an old town centre – that’s what your stay at this lovely campsite looks like. Camping Le Bois de Valmarie has everything you need for a sunny holiday. Enjoy delicious food, cool off with a refreshing swim, and set off on fun day trips. The whole family will have a great time at this child-friendly campsite.Swimming in the Mediterranean
The campsite is perfectly located between the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean Sea. From your comfortable accommodation, it’s just a short walk to Plage du Racou – ideal for a dip in the sea or a lazy afternoon on the beach. You can also unwind by the campsite’s beautiful pool. In the water park of Camping Le Bois de Valmarie, an exciting water slide winds through the rocks before splashing you into the cool water below. And if you’re looking to truly relax, why not treat yourself to some time in the wellness area?A wonderful place for kids
Children will love it here. There’s a kids’ club full of fun activities and a mini disco where they can dance the evening away. When they’re not splashing around in the pool, they can head to the playground – complete with rope bridge, trampoline, archery range and table tennis. They’ll never get bored! From the playground, parents can easily keep an eye on them while relaxing nearby. In the evening, enjoy a meal together at the restaurant. There’s also a snack bar by the pool where you can grab a bite after swimming. The large restaurant offers a lovely terrace where you can enjoy a relaxed dinner or pick up something to take away.The picturesque surroundings
Just twenty minutes away lies Perpignan – a lively city that’s full of character. Stroll along the sunny coast, explore an old castle, or wander through its narrow, charming streets. Thanks to its seaside location, the area is perfect for kayaking, snorkelling or diving. A trip to the medieval village of Castelnou is also highly recommended – it’s considered one of the most beautiful villages in France. And if you’re up for some outdoor adventure, the nearby mountains invite you to go hiking or mountain biking.The Mediterranean just steps away
The location makes Le Bois de Valmarie the perfect holiday destination. Spend your days relaxing on a stunning beach, gazing out over the turquoise sea. From here, you can easily explore the charming coastal towns nearby. And since you’re so close to the Spanish border, it’s the perfect opportunity to pop over and visit a picturesque Spanish village – tapas included!

Kleinschalige mooie familiecamping met een fantastisch zwembad met diverse leuke glijbanen, gezellige bar en genoeg ruimte eromheen. Geen zin in het zwembad, de zee (bewaakt) is aan de overkant van de straat.
