Camping Abijune

Welcome to Camping Abijune**, a 4-star campsite in Le Tilleul, officially recognised as the closest campsite to the famous cliffs of Étretat. Located just outside the seaside resort, this peaceful, green site offers a perfect balance between Normandy countryside tranquillity and quick access to the dramatic Alabaster Coast. The campsite features around 100 spacious pitches and modern mobile homes, arranged in a calm and well-maintained landscaped setting (source: official website & Camping.info).

Guests can choose from large camping pitches suitable for tents, caravans and motorhomes, many with electricity connections and easy access to the on-site motorhome service area. Clean, modern sanitary facilities are regularly maintained and designed for comfort.

A highlight of Camping Abijune is the heated, semi-covered swimming pool, allowing swimming regardless of Normandy’s changing weather (source: official pool page). Families appreciate the dedicated children’s playground, while the relaxed atmosphere makes it equally appealing to couples and hikers.

On-site services include:

• Snack bar serving light meals in high season
• Small grocery shop for essentials and fresh bread
• Reception hall with tourist information
• Motorhome service area
• Wi-Fi access (coverage confirmed via campsite listing platforms)

Cleanliness, calm surroundings, and thoughtful services define the experience. Whether arriving by campervan or staying in a mobile home, this campsite near Étretat delivers comfort without losing its authentic Norman charm.

Camping Abijune’s greatest asset is its exceptional location. The world-famous Cliffs of Étretat are just 2 km away (approx. 5 minutes by car or 25 minutes on foot). These iconic white chalk formations and coastal walking trails are among Normandy’s most photographed landscapes.

The centre of Étretat is also around 2 km from the campsite, offering numerous restaurants, cafés, bars, bakeries, souvenir shops and small supermarkets. The main beach at Étretat (pebble beach with lifeguards in season) lies approximately 2.5 km away.

Outdoor enthusiasts can access marked hiking trails directly from the village of Le Tilleul, leading along the cliffs and through the Pays de Caux countryside. Cycling routes wind through traditional Norman farmland within minutes of the campsite.

Within a 30–40 minute drive, guests can explore:

• Fécamp (18 km) – harbour town and Benedictine Palace
• Honfleur (45 km) – picturesque old port
• Le Havre (30 km) – UNESCO-listed architecture

This location makes the campsite an ideal base for exploring Seine-Maritime and the entire Alabaster Coast.

Camping Abijune is a 4-star campsite open seasonally (typically spring through early autumn; exact dates confirmed annually on the official website). Early booking is strongly recommended during summer due to high demand for Étretat accommodation.

The campsite is peaceful and family-oriented, with quiet hours respected. The heated semi-covered pool is a major advantage in Normandy’s variable climate, extending the swimming season.

Motorhome travellers benefit from:

• Dedicated service area
• Electricity connections
• Easy-access pitches

The campsite is not directly on the seafront; however, the short 2 km distance ensures both tranquillity and quick beach access. The walk to Étretat includes slight elevation typical of the cliff region, so comfortable footwear is recommended.

Grocery basics and fresh bread are available on-site during the main season, but larger supermarkets are located in Étretat and within a 10-minute drive.

This campsite is ideal for travellers seeking proximity to Étretat without staying in the busy town centre. Combining nature, coastal hiking, and relaxed camping comfort, Camping Abijune offers one of the best bases for discovering Normandy’s most spectacular coastline.
