Great campsite with access to the beach. Be aware that there are a lot of flies if you camp close to the beach. Toilets are clean. We paid 24€ for 2 persons + camper, no electricity Sanitary will be closed in October as the season is over

Excellent campsite right next to the lake beach. Large tent pitch sites, good facilities and reasonable price. Will definitely come back

BAD CAMP SITE Noisy, the restaurants nearby make a lot a noise in late evening. The wash rooms are very dirty and smells of sewers everywhere, even on the beach. Cold showers during the day , and certain showers are blocked up ! Water is everywhere. Toilets are often blocked up. WIFI network doesn't work. Each place for the tent or caravan is badly kept; bushes are not cut, rubbish from the previous customers are still present . Stony ground for tents. Disagreable people who work at the camp site.We were obliged to pay all in advance and it is not remboursable. So if you do not like all the points mentionned before; you can not leave early and get your money back! it is a shame !

What a great place to be, if you love windsurfing you are here in the right place. I came here since i was a little boy, i came at this place for over 16 years. lot has been changed in this period of time. Recommended to go here, a lot of friendly people, the fresh bread everyday keeps you in a healthy state. The water at this side of the river is very cold because of the melting water out of the Durance. Everynight (in my time) there was a fireplace with lots of dutch people. So now and then there are parties given by the camping and individual people over there.
