The Sablons beach in Pornic: a jewel on the Jade coast to discover during your stay at Flower Camping La Guichardière
An Exceptional Natural Setting
Plage des Sablons is perfect for those who want to get away from crowded beaches, noise and big facilities. It’s simple, beautiful and unspoilt. With its rock-lined cove, orange-colored sand and ocean views, it offers a true interlude of serenity just a few minutes from downtown and Pornic’s marina.
A catering service with your feet in the sand
On the beach, La Cabane des Sablons welcomes visitors from April to September. This small guinguette offers a simple but tasty menu: salads, sandwiches, tapas in the evening, ice creams and cold drinks to enjoy on the terrace or with your feet in the sand. Live entertainment is sometimes organized here.
Something for everyone
Plage des Sablons offers a wide range of activities for all ages and tastes. Younger visitors can build sandcastles or play in the waves. Adults can sunbathe and swim, or try their hand at paddleboarding, kayaking or windsurfing.
A place steeped in history
Plage des Sablons is also famous for the Vierge du Rocher, a statue erected in 1880 by a local landowner after surviving a fall. She watches over bathers from a rock cavity accessible by cliffside stairs.
Plage des Sablons is as beautiful in the sunshine as it is overcast, but if the weather’s fickle or there’s rain or gusts in the forecast, don’t worry: there are plenty of alternatives if you’re wondering what to do in Pornic when it rains. Visit the museums, stroll through the town center or explore the surrounding Pays de Retz. Even if the sky is overcast, you’ll still enjoy your camping holiday!
How do I get to Les Sablons beach from Flower Camping La Guichardière?
The Sablons beach is easily reached on foot or by bike via the coastal path that runs through Sainte-Marie-sur-Mer. The path offers lovely views of the cliffs and ocean. If you’re staying at our wi-fi campsite, you can also cycle there. It’s a great way to enjoy the west coast while getting to a place that’s quieter than the big beaches of downtown Pornic.
A small parking lot is also available nearby for those who prefer to come by car. In high season, however, it’s best to arrive early to find a space easily. The access road is safe and well signposted, and the descent to the beach takes just a few minutes.
