La Parée du Both, Seaside campground in Saint-Hilaire-de-Riez, France.
La Parée du Both is a seaside campground in the Vendée region that spreads across a natural area between coastal forest and Atlantic beaches. The site offers around 96 pitches for tents, caravans, and mobile homes.
The Saint-Hilaire-de-Riez region built its camping infrastructure during the 1960s tourism boom. Agricultural lands were transformed into recreational areas for visitors during this period.
The location offers direct contact with the maritime way of life along the Atlantic coast, where salt marshes and fishing traditions still shape the daily rhythm of the region. Visitors who walk through the area encounter these practices in small harbors and across the local landscape.
The campground sits between forest and beach, with direct access to the sea and walking and cycling paths. Facilities like the covered swimming pool operate during the warmer months from April through September.
The campground connects directly to forest paths that lead to around 240 kilometers of cycling routes. These paths wind through protected natural reserves and coastal landscapes, making it easy for visitors to explore beyond the site itself.
