The most beautiful campsites in Picardy

These campsites are mainly concentrated in the North West of Picardy on the English Channel and even more so in the Bay of the Somme, renowned for its immense beaches and oversized tides, which are a delight for sailboat and shrimp fishing enthusiasts! The most famous and lively seaside resorts stretch along the coast between Fort Mahon and Le Crotoy. It is the most touristic area of the region, and as far as prices are concerned, a week at a campsite in Picardy near the sea will cost you 990€ in the high season and 655€ in the low season.

If you are looking for a campsite in the Somme near the English Channel, we recommend Camping le Domaine du Château de Drancourt (5*). It is located as its name suggests in the park of a castle and has a magnificent swimming pool with water slide. It is located 7km from the beach of Crotoy.

If you want to taste camping by the sea, we recommend camping les Galets de la Molliere which has a nice swimming pool and is 200m from the sea.

If you want to enjoy the heart and soul of Picardy, then direction Amiens.C'est la capitale touristique de la Picardie. The city centre is charming with its cobbled streets, stone-built buildings and restaurants that celebrate a true culinary tradition. To taste imperatively: Picardy strings and Maroual (a really strong but absolutely excellent cheese). Of course it is impossible to avoid the cathedral! The nearest campsite is Camping Le Parc des Cygnes, which is located on the edge of a lake (in fact in the heart of several lakes).

f you are looking for an unusual camping trip in the Aisne near Soissons, head towards the Nid in the Heather. It is a charming estate that offers tree houses and a surprising Hobbit house.

And for an unusual camping trip in the Oise, we recommend Camping Les Grands Chênes. You can stay in a luxurious setting in its huts perched in the trees up to 13 meters high.

In short, camping in Picardy is quite cheap and you will find a large concentration of campsites by the sea and more scattered campsites in the middle of nature when going down to the South East.
