    Your Reviews Capture the Spirit of a Holiday on Île de Ré Our campsite, a prime location by the sea

    What if the best holiday memories were also the simplest ones?

    Every season, many of you take the time to share your experience at Camping Les Baleines, and your reviews mean a great deal to us. They reflect what makes our campsite so special: an unspoilt natural setting, the ocean just a short walk away, peaceful surroundings and a warm welcome.

    A wonderful location in the heart of Île de Ré’s wild coastline

    One thing comes up time and again in your reviews: our exceptional location at the foot of the Phare des Baleines lighthouse, just a short distance from the ocean.

    You love being able to reach the coast on foot, set off along the cycle paths or explore the island’s villages and landscapes without having to take the car every time.

    And then there are those sunsets that invite you to slow down, take your time and simply enjoy the moment. These are the little pleasures that often become some of our most treasured holiday memories.

    Peace and quiet: an invitation to switch off

    Here, we have chosen to preserve a calm atmosphere, away from the hustle and bustle of large holiday parks. No swimming pool or noisy entertainment, just nature, fresh sea air, walks and the freedom to enjoy your holiday at your own pace.

    Whether you are travelling as a couple, with family or friends, or in a motorhome, we want everyone to find a place to unwind and reconnect.

    Cleanliness and comfort at the heart of your stay

    Many of you also highlight the well-maintained grounds, the cleanliness of our sanitary facilities and the care we take of our amenities.

    Spacious pitches, carefully maintained surroundings, comfortable accommodation and sanitary facilities that regularly receive praise in your reviews: we know these details matter when it comes to feeling at home from the moment you arrive. We also pay particular attention to the welcome we offer. Your kind comments about our team’s friendliness, availability and helpful advice mean a great deal to us. Helping you make the most of your stay is an essential part of what we do.

    The little pleasures that make a great holiday

    Fresh bread in the morning, a coffee before heading out, a few essentials from the campsite shop, a tasty break at the guinguette or an evening spent enjoying the fresh air…

    You appreciate the convenient services that make everyday life easier while preserving the simple, friendly spirit of camping. And with cycle paths nearby, there are plenty of opportunities to discover the island at your own pace.

    A campsite that cares for its environment

    Our natural surroundings are precious. That is why we strive to combine tourism with biodiversity protection and respect for the environment that surrounds us.

    Our commitment, recognised by the European Ecolabel for many years, reflects this ambition: to help you make the most of Île de Ré while protecting what makes it so beautiful.

    Thank you for your trust

    Your reviews encourage us to stay true to what matters most: a welcoming, well-maintained campsite where nature and peace and quiet take centre stage.

    Whether you have stayed with us before and would love to experience this atmosphere again, or you are discovering Camping Les Baleines for the first time, we look forward to welcoming you at the foot of the lighthouse for a few nights or a longer holiday.

    See you soon on Île de Ré, surrounded by the ocean, cycle paths and beautiful sunsets.
