Les Menhirs - Carnac, Southern Brittany

Parc Description

With a fabulous location just a short stroll from the bustling seaside resort of Carnac Plage, Camping Les Menhirs is the ideal choice for a family beach holiday. The parc itself features an excellent swimming pool complex, with a giant waterslide and waterchute, covered pool and even a little slide into the children’s pool. Children can also go for pony rides just off the parc, while adults can hire bikes to go around the peninsula as well as enjoying the small gym, solarium and Jacuzzi and a number of games such as football, basketball and boules. And if you can tear yourselves away, you’ll find that Carnac Plage has a superb sandy beach with a choice of watersports and many fine restaurants and shops. Our 10th year at this parc.
