I love La Citadelle de Loustic for its ideal location in Normandy! 🌊 Just 900 metres from the beaches, it's the perfect campsite for alternating between days by the sea and swimming in the heated pools. And with the Spacebowl, water slides and Carabouille playground, the kids will have a fantastic time! 💦
My personal favourite? The Balkos area, located across the road from the main campsite. With its spacious communal areas, two playgrounds and swimming pool open in July and August, it offers a quieter atmosphere, ideal for families looking for a little peace and relaxation.
And above all, make the most of your stay to explore the D-Day Landing Beaches, Ouistreham and the charming seaside resorts along the Côte de Nacre. A wonderful opportunity to combine family holidays with fascinating historical discoveries! ❤️
