The perfect embodiment of the Catalan art of living, Argelès-sur-Mer offers 300 days of sunshine a year to holidaymakers looking to recharge their batteries on the Mediterranean coast. To make the most of this temperate climate, open-air accommodation is ideal, especially when it combines comfort and a variety of activities like the 5-star La Chapelle campsite.
Situated at the southernmost tip of France's Mediterranean coast, this Roussillon commune, which owes its name to the clay soil on which it is built, is particularly rich in landscapes combining sea and mountains. The territory of this Catalan town near Perpignan includes:
These characteristics have attracted many visitors since the creation of paid vacations in the 1930s, and have gradually encouraged the Catalan town to develop a wide range of tourist accommodation. Today, it boasts no fewer than 55 campsites rated 3 to 5 stars, including this campsite in Argelès-sur-Mer, part of the Homair network, Europe's leading provider of mobile-home holidays.
Enjoy the Mediterranean coastline, admire the view of the Pyrenees, stroll through an authentic village, take part in water sports activities or enjoy lively evenings: all good reasons to come and spend a vacation in the most famous seaside resort in the Pyrénées-Orientales.
And for a 100% successful stay, the 5-star La Chapelle campsite, located just 200 meters from the Argelès-sur-Mer beach, offers epicureans:
Very well located campsite with all amenities on site. Our mobile home was very comfortable and well equipped.
All this in a secure environment (with a premium car-free zone ideal for children) and close to tourist sites such as Collioure, the birthplace of Fauvism, Carcassonne and its famous medieval city listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and Perpignan, the 4th largest city in the Occitanie region.
Argelès-sur-Mer is bordered by mountains, so hikes can also be taken from the campsite or, to keep with the aquatic theme, the port offers boat excursions, sea scooter and canoe hire, and scuba diving. And after a swim in one of the many coves along the coast, a tasting of freshly caught fish on one of the terraces is not to be missed.
Have a great vacation!
