  1. A boat trip to discover the Vendée coast in a different way

A boat trip is the best way to discover the coast and salt marshes from a different point of view. Under the commentary of a local guide, you can enjoy the most beautiful views while learning about the history of the Vendée coastline.

Thrill-seekers can opt for a jet-ski tour, a great way to combine sport and exploring the countryside.

 

  1. Exploring the superb island of Noirmoutier

From typical houses to beaches, wild birds, local plant species and salt marshes, the island of Noirmoutier is an incredible natural setting to discover in the Vendée.

Whether you visit on foot or by bike, this emblematic part of the region is brimming with spots, each more sublime than the last. Make the most of a full day out on the island before heading back to your Bel Air campsite for a themed evening.

  1. Fun and waterfalls at O'gliss park

Come and have the time of your life in a huge water park in Vendée! Lagoon, rock climbing, waterfalls, wild rivers, spa area, slides, paradise area, deckchairs, wave pool, children's area or virtual rafting, where do you start?

Whether you want to relax or get your adrenalin pumping, there's plenty to do in this Vendée park, designed for all ages, but especially for those who like to have a good time.

 

  1. Culture point at Maillezais Abbey

Would you like a bit of history? While we love theme parks and natural areas, we also love visiting historic monuments that have shaped the history of the Vendée.

We're taking you to Maillezais Abbey, an edifice built in the early 11th century, but above all a very beautiful place. With its impressive architecture and surrounding ruins, it really is a superb place to see.

The explanations given by the guides during the fun tour reveal the history of the site and the monastic life of the time, a fun and interesting leap into the past.

Between activities and discovering emblematic sites, get ready to fall in love with Sables-d'Olonne! We'll be getting the aperitif ready and waiting for you.

They tell you everything!

15 days at the top, entertainment, bar, pool, restaurant, very satisfying. The new outdoor pool is completely different from the old one and it's great, the entertainers are great, the activities on offer are great, like the various shows, the pool attendant is really nice and always has a smile on his face. 3rd year at Bel Air in summer and we're coming back every year. Highly recommended !!
