Within just a few kilometres of each other, you'll be seduced by the contrast and diversity of the landscapes of the five Aquitaine départements. Listed villages, spa resorts, a varied architectural heritage, gastronomic treasures based around wine, truffles, fruit, foie gras and seafood are just some of Aquitaine's assets. Not forgetting the colourful festivals and ancestral traditions, and the sporting events that punctuate the weekends in this land of surfing, rugby and Basque pelota.
The Atlantic coastline, which stretches from north to south from the Gironde estuary to the Basque country, is already a winning proposition for a getaway, with numerous addresses nestling under the pine trees well referenced on www.campings.com. It's an endless succession of beaches, often wild, and picturesque, lively seaside resorts, set against the immense Landes forest (900,000 hectares). Among the must-see sites in this area, you'll fall under the spell of the Arcachon Basin, the Pilat Dune, the Amazon-like Courant d'Huchet, the bay of Saint-Jean-de-Luz, the rocky coastline and the colourful Basque houses. An invigorating cocktail to match the tides.image
But you can also prefer the peace and quiet of the countryside inland, by choosing www.campings.com for campsites close to exceptional sites in the middle of the famous vineyards around Bordeaux, Blaye, Pauillac and Saint-Émilion, spread between the Médoc and Entre-Deux-Mers regions.
As you approach the historic cities of Sarlat, Bergerac and Périgueux, the attractive Périgord boasts fine local produce, prehistoric caves and a host of grandiose châteaux. In the neighbouring department, the orchards and hills of Lot-et-Garonne around Agen and Marmande blossom, with their characteristic medieval bastide villages.
Further south, the gentle rolling hills of the Béarn region near the Château de Pau herald the proximity of the fresh air of the Pyrenees, as you head towards the emblematic Rhune mountain, or the mountain valleys of Aspe and Ossau, with wide open spaces to explore on foot or by bike.
