Dream holidays on the Basque coast...
During summer, the activity team on the campsite organise aquaerobics sessions and water polo tournaments. The lifeguard offers you swimming lessons. Lastly, the summer season favours the aquatic park being open at night-time, which never fails to attract both adults and children who are fond of midnight swims.
So that children can have fun, the campsite has an impressive playground with a tower 7 metres high, water slides, a rope ladder, gymnastic apparatus. Close to this playground, there is a multi sports ground open to all, and upon which the Oyam team arranges sports tournaments and activities throughout the season, such as the famous tug of war!
Every morning during summer, a mini club welcomes young holidaymakers. Split into two groups (aged 4 to 8 and 9 to 12), children are invited to take part in a multitude of games and activities. Teenagers are in no way left out, as a club offers to those aged 13 to 17 a multitude of events and entertainments.
Although this top-of-the-range campsite in Bidart is a holiday resort which could not be more delightful for relaxing and having fun, its geographical location also makes it the perfect starting point to discover the Pays Basque. Although Biarritz is the place to be seen, the region has no shortage of other significant sites with great tourist attractions, starting with the seaside resort of Saint Jean de Luz, hardly 5 kilometres from the campsite, or indeed the Rhune pass, the summit of which can be accessed on a little tourist train. Inland, the curious are invited to pace up and down the colourful alleyways of the village of Espelette, to go hiking in the Gorges de Kakuetta gorges, to discover the Citadelle (Citadel) of Saint Jean Pied de Port and many other activities.
