Kiwi Bike Capbreton - La Civelle

Massive flat grassed pitch with shade provided by trees and hedges. Very clean facilities and a very well maintained campsite. Walking and cycling paths just outside the site to the village and beaches.

Camping here now. Pine woods with sheltered sites of sand and stone. Electric points at each site. Clean bathrooms with lots of showers and hairdryer. Places to wash dishes with hot water and places to empty your black water. Quiet at this time of year but a big site which has cafes, swimming pool and easy pedestrian access to the beach. Nice places to walk your dog as long as you watch out for cyclists. I imagine it's very busy in the height of summer. Open all year. Friendly, welcoming staff. Currently €18 a night.

We stayed on a Motor Home pitch which was part of the forest. Delightful pitches,great bike lanes to the beaches and towns. We extended our stay to 5 days as we really did enjoy being there.

Still a great location ( obviously, it hasn't moved) but the recent developments have not all been for the best. The restaurant area was not open mid-March, I'm sure the old Beer&Frites shack was but the biggest issue is the swimming pool arrangement. It seems the pool is run by the local swimming club, they are there from dawn to dusk which in itself would not be a problem but for the fact that the attached wash block is the only one open on site. The toilets are used for changing so often not available and the floor is awash by mid-afternoon post showers. There really needs to be at least one of the camping wash blocks open.
