The story of a family campsite in Brittany

Between open-air camping and caravanning and the Furic family, it is a love story which has now lasted for nearly 60 years and 3 generations! In 1960, Alain Furic and his wife take over the La Plage campsite in Le Guilvinec. A property situated by the sea which rapidly becomes one of the loveliest campsites in Brittany. Some 20 years after the creation of this establishment, the Furic family take over a holiday camp from the Renault works council, where in summer employees of the car manufacturer are able to stay at a low cost. For the rest of the year, the grounds accommodate the children of these same employees during stays on school study trips at the seaside. Alain Furic fell under the spell of this holiday camp, the upkeep of which left something to be desired and discerned the full potential of the site. The Océan Breton campsite adventure was then able to begin. Since then, 3 generations have succeeded him in leading the campsite with the sole objective of fully living up to holidaymaker expectations.
