Camping welcomes you until October 15!
High season is over, and we’d like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all our campers, staff and seasonal workers for the great times we’ve had together this summer. But it’s not all over yet, as there’s still time to make the most of September and spend a few days at the campsite until it closes on Sunday, October 15, 2017… You have to admit, taking a vacation on the Arcachon Basin while everyone else is at work is exhilarating, isn’t it?
The charm of camping vacations after the summer rush!
After celebrating the vacations throughout the high season, Camping Ker Helen isn’t ready to go into winter just yet! Mobile homes are still available for rent, and pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes are still being carefully maintained. After the summer, the campsite is quieter and the atmosphere is more “la dolce vita”. You’ll feel as if the whole campsite belongs to you! What’s more, you’ll benefit from the off-season rate. This is your chance to stay longer! As for the Bassin d’Arcachon, it’s back to its tranquil self, as the hordes of holidaymakers have mostly deserted the roads, beaches and tourist spots… It was well worth waiting a few weeks, wasn’t it?
All the good reasons to stay on the Bay of Arcachon in the off-season!
Summer vacations on the Bassin d’Arcachon are all very well, but booking your stay out of season may be even better! If you don’t have children, or if they’re already independent, September is an ideal time to treat yourself to a vacation that will make your colleagues at work, for whom summer vacations are already a distant memory, jealous.
Although the beaches of the Arcachon basin are great for swimming and sunbathing in summer, they offer other pleasures in the autumn. For example, you can enjoy a romantic picnic on the sand without the hustle and bustle of the beachgoers, stroll along the seafront and enjoy a beautiful autumn sunset from Cap Ferret… An excellent opportunity to recharge your batteries before the dreariness of winter!
As magnificent in autumn as it is in midsummer, the Dune du Pilat regains all its tranquility as soon as the July and Augusters have packed their bags! It’s the perfect time to climb to the top of the dune, sit in the sand and contemplate the ocean with the feeling of finally being alone in the world!
Exploring the Le Teich bird sanctuary outside the summer season is also a unique experience, during which you can take full advantage of the fabulous setting of this exceptional site. It’s also where thousands of birds make their winter quarters before heading off to new horizons next spring.
Another privilege of a camping vacation in September is the opportunity to stroll through the streets of Arcachon, which at the end of summer once again belongs to the people of Arcachon and true lovers of the Basin. You’ll be able to explore the winter town and its splendid villas, far from the summer crowds.
One last idea for your stay if you’re still hesitating? Take a boat trip around Île aux oiseaux and discover the cabanes tchanquées without the August or July crowds! Just the thing to recharge your batteries before the next vacation arrives!
Check availability and off-season low prices to book your camping vacation on the Bassin d’Arcachon and make the most of the last few weeks Ker Helen is open!
