Le Phare d'Opale, Coastal campground in Le Portel, France
Located atop coastal cliffs near the English Channel, Le Phare d'Opale campground extends across several hectares of land with designated areas for tents and caravans.
The campground establishment in the 1960s coincided with the rise of French coastal tourism, transforming this section of the Opal Coast into a recreational destination.
The campground organizes traditional French activities including petanque tournaments, evening performances, and regional food tastings throughout the summer season.
The facility maintains operating hours from Monday 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM and Tuesday through Sunday 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM, with full amenities including showers and electrical hookups.
Guests receive fresh baguettes delivered directly to their accommodations each morning through the campground's partnership with local bakeries.
