Beach Camping & Seaside Holiday Parks
Campsites and holiday parks located by the sea with beach access
About Beach Camping
Beach camping combines the joy of camping with the pleasure of being by the sea. Wake up to the sound of waves, enjoy morning swims, and spend your days building sandcastles and exploring coastal trails.
Our beach campsites are located along Europe's most beautiful coastlines, from the Mediterranean shores of France, Spain, and Italy to the North Sea beaches of the Netherlands and beyond. Whether you prefer the golden sands of the Costa Brava or the dramatic cliffs of Brittany, we have options to suit every beach lover.
Beach campsites often feature direct beach access, beachside bars and restaurants, water sports facilities, and dedicated beach clubs for children. Many also offer pools for days when you prefer freshwater swimming.
Booking early is recommended for beach campsites, especially during peak summer months (July-August). For better availability and prices, consider visiting in June or September when beaches are quieter but weather is still excellent.

What makes a beach campsite different from regular campsites?
Beach campsites are located near or directly on the coast, offering direct beach access, sea views, and water activities. They typically feature sandy pitches, beach facilities, and are perfect for summer holidays.
Are beach campsites suitable for families?
Yes! Beach campsites are excellent for families with children. Kids can enjoy building sandcastles, swimming in the sea, and exploring rock pools. Many sites also have kids clubs and playgrounds.
When is the best time to visit beach campsites?
The best time is typically May to September for warm weather and swimming. However, many beach campsites are lovely in spring and autumn when beaches are quieter and prices are lower.
What essential gear should I pack for beach camping?
Beyond standard camping gear, bring sand-resistant mats, UV-protective beach shelter or windbreak, reef-safe sunscreen, and waterproof bags for electronics. A mallet-free tent with sand pegs is ideal since regular pegs struggle in sandy ground.
Are beach campsites safe for swimming and water activities?
Most beach campsites are located near lifeguard-patrolled beaches during peak season, and many display daily flag warnings for sea conditions. Many sites also rent kayaks, paddleboards, and snorkelling equipment with safety briefings included.
How far in advance should I book a beach campsite?
For popular coastal destinations in southern France, Spain, or Italy during July and August, booking 3β6 months ahead is recommended. Shoulder-season stays in May, June, or September can often be booked just a few weeks in advance at significantly lower rates.
