Camping Havre de Bernieres

A 5-star campsite 300 metres from the D-Day landing beaches

Camping Havre de Bernières is located on chemin de Quintefeuille in Bernières-sur-Mer, in the Calvados department. Its setting is iconic: 300 metres from Juno Beach, one of the legendary D-Day landing beaches of June 1944. This historical dimension makes all the difference and is especially popular with families seeking a stay that combines relaxation with discovering heritage. The 5-star estate spreads over a carefully landscaped park, with shaded, clearly marked pitches to preserve everyone’s privacy. The overall atmosphere is calm and restful, particularly appreciated by couples and families wanting to recharge between historical visits. Accommodation ranges from contemporary mobile homes to more spacious versions for large families. Open from 10 April to 30 August 2026, the campsite holds a remarkable rating of 9.1/10 from over 1,200 customer surveys, a mark of high hospitality quality and customer satisfaction.

Restaurant, bar and exclusive perks

Dining on site includes both an à la carte restaurant and a snack bar, both open throughout the campsite’s season. The restaurant showcases Normandy flavours — grilled dishes, market dishes, seafood from the Calvados — in a dining room opening onto the park. The snack bar, quicker to grab a bite, offers pizzas, platters and ice cream for tasty breaks after the beach or a swim. The outdoor terrace is especially popular at the end of the day. As for entertainment, the campsite offers a programme suited to its intimate scale, complemented by free access to the shows at Donjon de l’Ars, 1.5 km away: an exclusive perk that multiplies the entertainment on offer for holidaymakers. The free hire of two bicycles per stay is one of the bonuses most appreciated by regulars: it lets you reach the beaches, the village of Bernières and the coastal paths with total freedom. Practical services include a grocery shop, daily bread delivery, a laundrette and Wi-Fi in the communal areas.

The D-Day beaches, Bayeux and Mont-Saint-Michel

Havre de Bernières’ location makes it an exceptional base for discovering historic and touristic Normandy. Juno Beach, 300 metres away, is one of the five D-Day landing beaches where Canadian troops landed in June 1944: its Juno Beach Centre tells the story with a moving museum display. The other beaches — Sword, Gold, Omaha and Utah Beach — are reachable in under an hour, with their American cemeteries, museums and still-visible German gun batteries. Bayeux, forty minutes away, reveals its famous UNESCO World Heritage tapestry and its Gothic cathedral. Caen, home of the Memorial, is twenty minutes away. Further afield, Mont-Saint-Michel, around 1h30 away, is worth a full day. Honfleur, a charming harbour on the Côte Fleurie, is an hour away for a change of scenery. On site at the campsite, a multi-sports pitch, pétanque and table tennis tables keep sports fans busy every day. Food lovers shouldn’t miss the Calvados cellars and the Isigny cheese dairies.
