The Camping de la Base Nautique is a welcoming family campsite nestled in a large bend of the Tarn River. Here, everything invites you to relax: the shaded pitches, the murmur of the river, and the unspoiled environment surrounding the site. It is a simple, authentic place where you can come to unwind and enjoy nature to the fullest.
At the water's edge, the nautical base allows you to rent canoes, kayaks, paddleboards, or pedal boats to explore the Tarn at your own pace. Swimming is particularly enjoyable here, with a supervised area in summer, ideal for families. A stone's throw away, the Baumes waterfall and the small coves of the Raspes gorges offer magnificent walks along the water.
From May to September, our restaurant by the river creates a friendly atmosphere. You can share a meal, have a drink or simply enjoy the setting between activities. In season, the campsite also offers a few activities, always in keeping with the tranquility of the place: yoga classes by the water, Zumba, tree climbing...
Here, the focus is on simplicity and the pleasure of being outdoors: a small, friendly campsite where you immediately feel at home and where you come back to enjoy the peaceful, authentic atmosphere while benefiting from all the essential comforts for a relaxing stay.
