Things to know before your stay

Published on 12/01/2023

At Le Vieux Port, your holiday starts as soon as your wish to get away from it all takes shape. And for that, we accompany you well before your arrival on site. So that you can plan ahead, we have put together a list of good practices that are essential for a dream stay at our 5-star campsite. Thanks to all this simple yet essential information, you will be able to fully enjoy the Landes way of life. Follow the guide!

Have the right swimming costume for fun in our water park

For hygiene reasons, it is compulsory to wear a swimming costume. Even though our water park has a pirate and Caribbean theme, we are constantly fighting against the introduction of iodine and grains of sand that would try to infiltrate our pools.

In order for you to fully enjoy our aquatic area and to avoid any malfunctioning of our equipment, beach shorts are therefore prohibited in all our pools and slides. Only a tight-fitting lycra swimming costume is allowed. Now that you know what to wear, get ready to slide through the crystal blue waters of Pirate's Land!

Don't forget to protect your windscreen from the sap of the pine trees

At Le Vieux Port campsite we have the privilege of living in the middle of the Landes forest, and we celebrate it every day. Here we quickly understand that trees are alive. Our gigantic pines, which are omnipresent on our campsite, bring softness and freshness, but they also let pearls of resin slip through.

So, to prevent sap from dripping onto your vehicles, don't hesitate to protect them with cloths. So remember to pack a sheet or other suitable protection to protect your cars from the resin. The best way toappreciate the Landes is to know all its secrets, and this one is no longer a secret!

Avoid the noise of cars at night

At Le Vieux Port campsite, we like to share with you our attachment to the nature that surrounds us. So to help you get away from it all, including at night, we have made sure that the sound of the waves will lull you to sleep rather than the noise of the engines.

It is therefore forbidden to drive through the alleys of our campsite after 11 pm. You are not allowed to enter our campsite after midnight either. The gates will be closed and it is therefore no longer possible to drive in or out after this time. Because in our opinion, respecting your nights a little more is also about living together better!
