La Rochelle, in the Charente-Maritime department, is one of the major port cities on the Atlantic coast, known for its Vieux-Port framed by its medieval towers. The four campsites listed here on this portal are linked to the sea, in keeping with a town that has always been turned towards the ocean and maritime trade.
The city benefits from direct access to the Île de Ré via the nearby bridge, a renowned aquarium and well-preserved architectural heritage at the heart of its historic centre. It's a complete camping destination in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, between urban heritage, nearby beaches and boat trips.
La Rochelle's Vieux-Port remains framed by its three famous medieval towers, the Tour Saint-Nicolas, the Tour de la Chaîne and the Tour de la Lanterne, which once protected the harbour entrance and today symbolise the town on most postcards.
The Aquarium de La Rochelle, one of the largest in Europe, presents marine wildlife in vast tanks by the harbour. The arcaded streets of the historic centre, built in white stone, bear witness to the town's prosperity in the days of colonial trade. Just nearby, the Île de Ré bridge makes it possible to reach the island's beaches and villages within minutes. Between medieval towers, an aquarium and direct access to the Île de Ré, La Rochelle remains a major stop on the Charente coast.
