Visit Soulac-sur-Mer<\/h1>

A rich cultural heritage <\/h2>
\n\t

Sunset in Soulac-sur-Mer in Gironde. Our Camping des Pins<\/a> is situated in the town of Soulac-sur-Mer, one of the most charming seaside resorts<\/strong> on the Atlantic coast. Nestled in the heart of an historic village<\/strong>, discover its unique history. With a relatively little-known Gallo-Roman past, Soulac became an important port on the Gironde in the Middle Ages. The town was then a stop on the Way of St James<\/strong>, where many pilgrims stopped off at the Basilica of Notre-Dame, the magnificent church in Soulac-sur-Mer in the heart of the town centre. <\/p>\n

Gradually encroached upon by the dunes, the town entered a period of decline from which it did not emerge until the 19th century. Soulac-sur-Mer reached its heyday with the rise in popularity of sea bathing<\/strong> and became a seaside resort around 1860. From this era, the town retains an exceptional collection of 500 villas<\/strong>, arranged around its basilica<\/strong>, a UNESCO World Heritage Site<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Stay right next to the seaside resort at our campsite at the tip of the M\u00e9doc<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n
