An abandoned caravan on the D71 road between Trigance and Comps-sur-Artuby in the Var department has not been removed for weeks despite multiple reports. Inside, mattresses, candles, matches, and cigarette butts were found, raising fire risk near the forest. Authorities cannot identify the owner due to a missing license plate. Abandoning a vehicle can result in a fine of up to 1,500 euros.

Fire at La Plaine-sur-Mer campsite: hundreds evacuated, caravans destroyed

On July 10, a wildfire broke out in La Plaine-sur-Mer (Loire-Atlantique), burning 83 hectares and damaging part of the Mirabel La Renaudière campsite. Nearly 200 firefighters and 73 vehicles were deployed; one firefighter was slightly injured. Residents, holidaymakers, and a riding centre with 50 horses were evacuated. Witnesses reported the fire spread rapidly due to wind and heat. The town hall opened a community hall for evacuees, and the Red Cross provided support. An investigation into the cause has been launched.

New landscaped motorhome area opens at Le Verger in Dompierre-sur-Mer

On August 4, a new motorhome area was inaugurated at the Le Verger campsite in Dompierre-sur-Mer. The 20-pitch site, designed by a landscape gardener named 'master gardener' in 2021, operates on a hybrid model: full campsite services in summer and autonomous access with a payment terminal the rest of the year. Rates are €15.50 (excluding tourist tax) until All Saints' Day and €12.50 after.

Camping remains popular despite changes

In summer 2025, French campsites recorded 125 million overnight stays, nearly half of all collective tourist accommodations. Offerings have diversified from traditional tents to glamping, while pitches for tents declined by 13.2% from 2019 to 2024, and equipped pitches rose by 17.3%. Sociologist Jean Viard notes that holidays have become a crucial time for rest and social connection, and the COVID-19 crisis only amplified pre-existing desires for nature and freedom.
