Village Seasonova Bassin d’Arcachon enjoys a coveted location in the heart of Audenge, making it a strategic base to discover the iconic Bassin d’Arcachon. Just 800 meters from Audenge’s centre, you’ll find cafés, artisan shops, and local markets offering fresh produce and regional specialties — perfect for lazy strolls and exploring French coastal village life.

The beaches of Audenge are only about 2 kilometres away, offering miles of fine sand and gentle waters for sunbathing, swimming, or water sports like paddleboarding and windsurfing. For nature lovers, the region’s celebrated Certes et Graveyron Nature Reserve features rich biodiversity with boardwalks, birdwatching spots, and peaceful cycle trails. The ornithological reserve nearby is a highlight for wildlife enthusiasts, with hundreds of bird species inhabiting the wetlands — an extraordinary experience just outside your glamping doorstep.

Those looking for quintessential Bassin d’Arcachon scenery should not miss the cabanes tchanquées — the iconic stilt houses set among oyster beds and waterways. Access is best by boat, and the views are stunning at both high and low tide. Oyster-lovers will want to visit the nearby ostréicole ports, where fresh oysters are harvested and served daily — a true taste of local tradition and gastronomy.

Further afield, you can explore the lively town of Arcachon, just a short drive away, famed for its Belle Époque architecture and vibrant waterfront. For striking natural landscapes, the majestic Dune du Pilat — Europe’s highest sand dune — lies within easy reach and is a must-see for sunset views and panoramic photography.

Village Seasonova Bassin d’Arcachon operates seasonally, typically opening from April to late September, making it ideal for spring, summer, and early autumn escapes under the warm southwest French skies. Check-in generally begins in the afternoon, and check-out is in the morning, allowing you plenty of time to savour your stay and make the most of each day.

The glamping accommodations emphasize a “Slow Life” philosophy, encouraging you to slow down and enjoy a gentle pace of living surrounded by nature while still benefiting from thoughtful facilities. While the campsite offers many conveniences, there’s no full restaurant or snack bar — a grocery shop on site provides essentials, and many local eateries are just a short walk away in Audenge.

Pets are welcome (with some breed restrictions), and barbecue areas let you dine outdoors al fresco in the fragrant pine air. Free Wi-Fi is provided across most of the campsite, keeping you connected without interrupting your nature escape.

If you travel with children, the playground and paddling pool are perfect for young guests, while the pool’s seasonality means that warm-weather dips are best between spring and early autumn. The cycling paths from the campsite invite exploration of the Bassin’s landscapes, but bring your own bikes or take advantage of onsite bike rentals for ease and adventure.

Transportation options are plentiful: the campsite is under an hour’s drive from Bordeaux–Mérignac Airport, and local roads offer scenic routes into the surrounding nature parks and coastal highlights.

By understanding these practical details, you can plan a comfortable, relaxed stay — whether you’re here to soak up seaside beauty, explore nature reserves, or simply unwind in glamping comfort.
