from 832 reviews Write review

Within walking distance of the coastal town of Saint-Vincent-sur-Jard, Camping La Bolée d'Air is conveniently located. You are also close to the Atlantic Ocean and the unique marshlands of the Parc naturel régional du Marais Poitevin.

Heart of the campsite

The campsite entrance is immediately recognisable by a high, green arch. Behind it is a central square with the reception. This is the heart of the campsite; you'll find two swimming pools, the bar and the playground. The site is flat and consists of a part with rental accommodation and a part with touring pitches.

Beach or swimming pool

The campsite has two swimming pools, one of which is covered. Outside there is a spectacular slide and you can cross over via a footbridge. The indoor pool is nicely heated and has a sliding roof. Of course, the sea is just around the corner, so those who prefer to cool off in the fresh sea water will be on the beach in no time.

Outdoor café

For a tasty takeaway meal or a snack you can go to the bar. The outdoor café is a pleasant meeting place for campers. At the small shop you can buy, among other things, fresh vegetables. A larger supermarket is a short distance from the campsite. Don't forget to taste the traditional wines from this area. This is a dry white wine that has been made with love for decades.

Effort or relaxation

Both younger children and teenagers will find plenty of entertainment on the campsite. There are many sports possibilities and there is a nice miniature golf course. At the reception you can rent bikes and explore the region with the whole family.

€15 per night during lowseason
Campsite accepts ACSI Club ID

Liked - A peaceful night. As it was the end of the season the site was very quiet which suited us fine. Good to see that the pool was still open.

Travelling party: Young couple

Liked - The pool was nice. Pitches large and shady. €15 booking fee excessive. Office hours not always as advertised.
Disliked - The road noise. Confirmation email said arrive after 12. Office shut from 12-3pm. No waiting area inside so had to wait 3 hours outside. Someone saw us arrive but didn't offer to open the barrier to let us in. Poor. They "lost" our €20 deposit for the gate fob so have us someone else's! Probably an admin error but worrying.
