Postcard from Cavalaire sur Mer #2

Stunning ! one of the dogs doesent look to good though :-)

Wow!  Fab!  Jealous!

But I suspect you are really missing our wind, rain and cold....

Great....we are usually down in South France this time of year,usually leave UK end April, and come home 5th - 7th July.

We love Cavalaire ser mer...one of our favourite places to stay.

Port Grimaud, and St Raphael amongst others.

We recently moved home, therefore have not gone this year.Really missing it...(been doing it for the past 5 years!)

We usually go out of season and use camping cheques or  cc acsi , sites usually between 13-17 euro per night with electric.

Hve a great time....jealous as hell !!!

sounds like heaven,do you know if it is as crowded in September?

We've been back in October when it's still sunny and warm. Camping de la Baie stays open until the beginning of November. September will still be busy, but not crowded. If you book more than about a week in advance, they may charge you a booking fee (not part of site fees). There are several sites at Cavalaire so you should get in to one of them.

Hope this helps

Hi can i ask you if the camp sites are nearly full did you book in advance happy travels Rod

We were there in June when bad weather in Northern Europe drove many campers down to the Med in search of sunshine. The campsites along the coast were busier than normal. July and first two weeks in August are always busy in France as you probably know. When the ACSI low rate season starts (1st September) all the Dutch, Belgian and German OAPs descend! 

This year we phoned Camping de La Baie about 3 weeks in advance ( they speak perfect English) en route. We're regular customers and we've always managed to get in even when we haven't booked. You may have to adjust your length of stay to fit in with what's available. They're very flexible and really want you to enjoy your stay e.g. If another pitch becomes available which you prefer, they'll let you change pitch without fuss. Easier to do if your a motorhomer!

Give them a ring: Camping de la Baie is in the CC Book 1.

Like many sites, they only allow saturday to saturday bookings in high season (those mad 6 weeks when all of France seems to go on holiday)
