" Hello. The closest airport is Beziers which is served by Ryanair. It is then a taxi transfer or two buses to Village Naturiste. Next closest is Montpelier which has the advantage that flights are daily ( Easyjet ) . Whether you take your campervan or rent accommodation is your personal choice. If renting an apartment in July or August expect to pay up to £1000 per week .( charges outside the gate are about half that ). I think that a pitch on the Campsite is at least 30 Euro a night. If renting accommodation check very carefully that it is actually inside the gate as you do not want to pay a premium price for accommodation outside it. Accommodation inside the gate will be in one of the following areas. Port Venus , Port Soleil , Port Ambonne , Port Nature or Heliopolis. |

We took our motorhome last year . It's a nice drive and we avoided the toll roads so had the lovely scenery to enjoy. It was roughly €50 per night for 2 people with electric. You can pretty much pick your pitch as there are over 2,500 pitches. Its huge. We opted for closer to the beach . We have just booked for 5 nights july 22nd to 27th. If you need anymore info ie rote fuel cost etc give us a message if you like xxmiss |

2019 virgins going back June 2020 Stayed Port Nature and doing so again June this year Did much research through forums but for the avoidance of doubt if you fly to beziers there is no train from the airport Book a taxi circa 30 quid Flights cheap accommodation isn’t but most go back .... speaks volumes If you need more happy to share what we know |

I stayed one night as a guest on campsite last year when I made a mistake on my apartment booking. Consequently Rene Oltra added me to their mailing list and have posted this year's brochure .
A pitch in June for two people is 30. 80 Euros and you will need a gate pass which is 16 Euro for up to two weeks. You would probably need to calculate the fuel cost yourself as that will depend at what speed you drive , the size of the van and type of engine.

Just one tip on the fuel.
Even if you are happy to use the toll roads it's well worth doing at least a few kms on the N roads if only to fuel up
The price difference between motorway service stations and local ones is huge.
As in the UK the large supermarkets (Le Clerk for example) have their own petrol and usually work out the cheapest of all. |

"My advice ...make sure you got lots of money "
It depends, there are a range of prices in the village for both accommodation and eating and the beach is free.
Being local during the summer we are going into the village 2 or 3 times a week day and evening. We rarely spend more than 30 euros and often less but still have a great time. |

"On fuel - supermarkets are cheapest (usually) and LeClerc usually cut their fuel prices at weekends. Usually Saturdays but sometimes both days. " Anyone know what the quality of fuel is like in French supermarkets. In the UK I do not buy supermarket fuel as I believe that it contains less additives.

It’s safe to use. If not the French would have ensured changes - the only fuel strikes are over things like pension reform etc.
I’ve been using them for ‘normal’ cars plus a high performance one for more than 10 years. |
