Railbike
Also discover the out-of-the-ordinary Vendée countryside with the vélorail (family fun by pedalling along an old railway track). More convivial than a simple bicycle ride, you will have plenty of time to take your little tribe on a ride, within a delightful and green environment! During the holiday season, make the most of a 14-kilometre 2-hour round-trip. A novel opportunity promising moments of laughter as a family!


Le Château des Aventuriers
With your children dicover the Château des Aventuriers (the adventurers’ château)! Located in Avrillé, 40 minutes from the campsite, become immersed within worlds each more impressive than the others. In the château, amongst the pirates or in the dinosaur’s enclosure, parents and children should solve puzzles and have their fill of discoveries! An activity which delights children, as much as parents, for one of the most pleasant afternoons!
Do you long for aqua play thrills?

Zoos and wildlife parks
Les Sables d’Olonne Zoo
Discover a zoo like no other with the Zoo des Sables. An animal park which has invested heavily in the protection of both species and the environment (an eco zoo). We find impressive species such as the maned wolf or the Red-faced Black Spider Monkey from Colombia. It takes around 2 hours to fully enjoy the species in this park. Come and get fresh supplies at the snack bar on the Les Saïmiris terrace; this is located as close as possible to the wild animals!


Planète Sauvage
Sticking with the animal theme, go on safari with Planète sauvage! Only one hour from the campsite by road, this park consists of 5 major worlds to discover. These include the 10-kilometre Safari trail with savannah animals roaming freely, the Cité Marine (a marine-based attraction) and its dolphin show, the Chemin de Brousse (brush path) with the Village de Kirikou - Kirikou village (inspired by the film Kirikou and the Wild Beasts by Michel Ocelot). The other two worlds are the Sentier des Incas (Inca trail), and its little monkeys roaming freely, and the Temple de la Jungle (jungle temple) and its suspended bridge.
