1 – Choose the right size of tent pitch in Vendée
Before thinking about the ideal location, you must first choose the good size to pitch your tent.
Are you coming with a small tent for 2 or a large family tent? Or are you planning to bring your van or caravan ?
In any case, choose a location that is suitable for what you expect from your vacation. It all depends on what you bring and how many people you have with you.
The little extra:
Remember to leave some space for your picnic table , your deckchairs and why not a small space for a barbecue . Because the tent pitch in Vendée is also a place that allows you to experience lazing around outdoors!

2 – The perfect location for you: rather quiet or lively?
Once you know the size of your tent pitch in Vendée, it’s time to ask you about its location.
If for you, “holidays” rhyme with peace and quiet and rest , then choose a location a little away from the entertainment and the swimming pool.
For example, at the Tropicana, we have some quieter corners, perfect for those who like to relax or for those who prefer to read under the trees without being disturbed.
Sit in a shady corner, close your eyes and breathe in the fresh air of the Vendée.
If, on the other hand , you love being in the heart of the action, why not choose a location close to the activities?
You will be just a stone’s throw from children’s entertainment, the swimming pool or theme evenings. So, are you ready to get into the swing of things on holiday?

3 – Between shade and sun, the choice is yours!
Then, the rest depends on whether you like to sleep in or not. If you like to sleep until late, choose a shady spot for your tent pitch in Vendée.
Indeed, in summer in Vendée, it can be hot, very hot! To be able to sleep until late without cooking, the shade of the pines will be perfect for you.
On the contrary, if you plan to get up early, why not pitch your tent in the sun? That way, you can enjoy lazy afternoons and get a little tan!
4 – Reserve your tent pitch in Vendée early
Afterwards, think about planning ahead!
Let’s not lie to ourselves, the best tent pitches in Vendée go quickly.
If you already have a clear idea of what you want (near the pool, in the shade, next to your friends, etc.), don’t wait until the last minute to book.
The Vendée is a popular destination, and smart campers know that you have to book early to have a choice.
Besides, if you’re going to anticipate it, you might as well make your reservation online . At Tropicana, we’ve made things easy for you: you can book directly on our website.

5 – Plan for the bare essentials to travel light
All you have to do now is pack your suitcase. And to get into your tent, you’d better travel light! But not too light either, to be sure to sleep well.
Tent, inflatable mattress, sleeping bag, flashlight … Don’t forget anything to make your vacation 100% comfortable.
Also think about a few small accessories that can make all the difference: an extension cord , a cooler to keep your drinks nice and cold, and why not a hammock to really take it easy?
And to make your stay even more enjoyable (and if you have space in the car), don’t hesitate to bring a small groundsheet for the entrance to your tent, a protective canvas for shade and a few games to keep the children busy while you sip a cocktail.
Oh, and of course, don’t forget the essential barbecue kit for your grilling evenings!
