Open from April 11 to September 22, 2025

The most authentic campsite in Argelès sur Mer, Le Bois de Valmarie occupies a unique site in the heart of a cork oak forest, overlooking the Mediterranean. On the heights of the famous Le Racou hamlet, less than 50 metres from the beach, our campsite on a human scale makes every effort to accommodate holidaymakers in the best possible conditions, particularly for families with young children and lovers of peace and idleness in equal measure.

It is close to the port of Argelès-sur-Mer, but also to Collioure and Spain, which you can reach via the coastal pathway, starting in Le Racou. Our establishment has a heated water park with water sides, enjoying a breathtaking view over the Mediterranean, a wellness area with sauna and Jacuzzi, massage cabins, gym, children’s club and outdoor play area. Within our 5 star campsite, come and recharge your batteries in a preserved setting, for a holiday governed by the rhythm of peace and the gentle way of life…

1 La Sirène campsite - Activities and entertainment - Aquabike classes
A superbly maintained campsite, just a stone’s throw from the seaside, between the beach and pool, we made the most of our stay to feel good! In the morning, we had aquaerobics, aquabike and the gym on the agenda. This then made way for idleness, or a visit to this magnificent region…

The Le Racou district is the most authentic in Argelès! We felt good here and we liked walking come the end of the day, looking for a restaurant or tapas bar!

4 le Bois de Valmarie campsite - Accommodation - Couple walking on the campsite path
A peaceful holiday! It had been a long time since I’d stayed on a campsite. I remember noise everywhere, and entertainment until the small hours… There is none of that here. The surroundings, in addition to being clean and green are peaceful: the birds make the most of it, to allow us in turn to make the most of their sweet song!

Do not miss out on enjoying the Paella by the water, during an evening at the water park! A superb atmosphere between holidaymakers and activity leaders, at reception, everyone has a smile which is great.

6 Le Bois de Valmarie campsite - Water park - Children playing in the water park
The swimming pool is fantastic for children, with lots of water slides. You can also go to Le Racou beach in 5 minutes on foot. You should allow 10 to 15 minutes to get to the Grande Plage beach and the pedestrian shopping streets in Argelès. Lastly, the children’s club is open all season. As we came in May, this was most agreeable!

The wellness area

Our campsite occupies a unique site by the sea, a wooded hill overlooking the Mediterranean, a genuine balcony above Le Racou. This is the most authentic and out-of-ordinary district in Argelès sur Mer. Here, in this remote area (Racou meaning “nooks and crannies” in Catalan), you have impression of being on the other side of the world, far from the crowds and hustle and bustle of the town centre. On the beach front in the shade of the mountains, our holiday rentals enable you to spend a delightful stay, in a relaxing and peaceful atmosphere. Here the pace of life is certainly more gentle and slower than elsewhere!
