The advantages of going on holiday by the sea in France
It's no coincidence that so many tourists, both French and foreign, flock to our coasts and beaches all year round! They are full of pleasant towns to discover and offer an idyllic setting for a weekend or a real seaside holiday. First of all, it's a chance to fill up on iodine, which is omnipresent on the beach, and benefit from its many virtues. Secondly, it's a chance to find yourself in optimum conditions for sunbathing, so you can return home with a superb, sun-kissed complexion. If you choose to rent a house by the sea, you only have a few minutes (or sometimes even less) before you can take a dip and cool off in the company of friends and family. What's more, it's often an opportunity to take part in various activities on the beach (volleyball, kayaking, paddle boarding, sand yachting, etc.) and to attend the various events that France's seaside resorts have got into the habit of organising to keep their visitors happy.
Types of seaside accommodation in France
Depending on your budget and the people accompanying you, you'll be looking at a number of comfortable pied à terre spread across the coastline in France. From booking a cosy little studio a stone's throw from the shore to renting a seaside villa in France, you're spoilt for choice! Like an increasing number of travellers, you may be turning away from a collective, conventional accommodation solution and prefer to rent by the sea from a private individual. A fully-equipped studio or flat with a sea view, close to the shops and supervised sandy beaches, ideal for a low-cost summer break for couples or families. Other typical cosy nests offered on our dedicated holiday site include houses with enclosed gardens and swimming pools, properties with a large number of beds. Their hosts provide a range of facilities for occupants, such as parasols, children's beach games, etc. Which region of France should you choose? The possibilities are many and varied: the Basque Country, the Île d'Oléron, the Golden Belt, the Emerald Coast...or the outskirts of Marseille and in the Languedoc, for those coveting an unusual seaside rental in the Mediterranean. With all the accommodation on offer on our site, you'll have no trouble planning your holiday in France, practically with your feet in the water. The French coastline boasts many beautiful sandy or pebble beaches, to the delight of its visitors.
Destinations by the sea or ocean
You'll have no trouble finding a holiday destination in any case, whatever your preferences. For a holiday by the Atlantic Ocean that's both rejuvenating and rewarding, set your sights on Saint-Nazaire! This is a unique opportunity to take a trip over its remarkable bridge and visit its interesting eco-museum, which traces the town's rich history. If tourism also rhymes with history for you, renting a seaside house in Bretagne, at Colleville-sur-Mer, remains a fantastic opportunity to walk the D-Day beaches. Further south, you're also likely to have a memorable time staying a few days in Quiberon , in the vicinity of its charming fishing port. Near your seaside rental in Morbihan , you're bound to marvel at the coastal scenery, particularly that offered by the Pointe du Percho. Also worth mentioning are the communes of Mimizan and Capbreton, key destinations for holidays by the Atlantic Ocean in the Landes.
