Hourtin-Plage: 5-star Campsite La Côte d’Argent

Situated in the region of Gironde, and in the middle of the Medoc wine region, La Côte d’Argent welcomes you from 17 May to 11 September 2023 to its magnificent, 20-hectare pine forest site just 300 meters from the sandy beach.

The campsite is ideally situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty and is the ideal starting point to visit the châteaux of Medoc, discover the beautiful town of Bordeaux, or sample the famous oysters of Arcachon.

Hourtin-Plage is the ideal destination for board sports fanatics, boating enthusiasts and nature lovers, with miles of sandy beaches and the majestic pine forest. The town is small but perfectly formed with entertainment, activities, bars, shops, and a weekly night market throughout the summer.

At 4km, it is France’s largest freshwater lake. Thanks to its warm and shallow water, it is ideal for young families. The lake also offers facilities for fishing, sailing, windsurfing and kite surfing.

The area has one of the best cycle networks in Europe. From right outside the campsite, you can pick one of the many cycle paths which meander through the forest as well as a number of signposted hiking trails, and discover this fantastic natural reserve in tranquillity. The area is mostly flat so ideal for children. We have bikes for hire on the site.
