A different way to spend a holiday in unspoilt surroundings
Why choose an ecological campsite in the Camargue?
Choosing an ecological campsite in the Camargue means choosing a responsible holiday in an exceptional natural environment. Renowned for its remarkable biodiversity, unspoilt beaches and unique natural spaces, the Camargue is the ideal setting for a natural, environmentally-friendly vacation.
Camping Le Clos du Rhône is part of this eco-responsible dynamic. Located at the entrance to the Camargue Regional Nature Park, it has been managed for over 40 years by a committed local SEM (SEMIS), which has made sustainable development a major focus of its strategy. This positioning translates into sober management of resources, preservation of local biodiversity and a series of concrete initiatives to limit the campsite’s environmental footprint.
Preserving the Camargue’s unique biodiversity
The Camargue is home to exceptional flora and fauna, with marshes, reed beds, dunes and sandy beaches. Camping Le Clos du Rhône is actively involved in preserving this natural heritage through concrete actions on the ground: beach clean-ups, partnerships with local associations, installation of communal composters, raising holiday-makers’ awareness of eco-waste management and local wildlife.
The campsite itself has been developed with respect for the environment: protected natural areas, preservation of original vegetation, limitation of artificial night lighting to protect nocturnal species… A real commitment to a preserved environment, between wild nature and direct access to the Mediterranean Sea.
Reduce your ecological footprint on vacation
To enable every holidaymaker to contribute to more sustainable tourism, the campsite provides energy-efficient equipment: widespread LED lighting, better insulated buildings, optimized thermal management, insulated pipes, etc. Smart shower systems have also been installed to control water consumption while guaranteeing comfort for everyone.
Soft mobility is also given pride of place, with the use of electric vehicles (golf carts, scooters) for internal travel. Waste sorting is reinforced, with clearly identified collection points located throughout the site. Waste recovery is also an important action, notably through the recycling of cigarette butts and the installation of composters.
Characteristics of an eco-responsible campsite
Camargue ecological camping is distinguished by accommodation and facilities designed to limit their impact on the planet. Living spaces are designed to blend harmoniously with nature, while offering a high level of comfort.
Green spaces are maintained without the use of phytosanitary products, thus promoting a healthier local ecosystem. Our eco-responsible approach also extends to raising awareness among campers: educational materials are available at reception, and workshops and activities focusing on sustainable development can be organized for children at the kids’ club.
Labels and certifications
Camping Le Clos du Rhône’s commitment to sustainable tourism has been recognized by a number of labels and awards. In 2024, the site was awarded the prestigious Clef Verte label, which distinguishes establishments committed to a credible and effective environmental policy. It was also a finalist in the Trophée des Entreprises Publiques Locales in 2023 for its overall ecological transition approach.
Also of note: the Ports Propres Actifs en Biodiversité (Clean Ports Active in Biodiversity ) label for its port infrastructures. These certifications validate the quality of the actions undertaken over several years to promote sustainable, responsible tourism in line with the values of the Camargue region.
