Port Camargue

Port-Camargue UCPA is nestled in the bay of Aigues-Mortes between the immense beach of Espiguette and the traditional fishing port of Grau du Roi, now renowned for wind sports. The centre faces the slipway for launching the boats, the pontoon to reach the kitesurfing spots by boat and is located 200 metres from the North Beach (windsurfing spot) making it hassle free getting back to the centre.

Port Camargue, built in the 1970s is the largest marina in Europe making it the hub of all things boat related. Nestled in between Espiguette beach and the traditional fishing port of Grau du Roi, there are plenty of restaurants, shops, a market and tourist attractions such as the aquarium to keep you occupied. With great cycle paths all around the marina it is a great way to explore the Mediterranean coastline.

This UCPA centre was completely rebuilt in 2017 offering very pleasant, comfortable rooms and communal spaces. All the communal areas open onto a patio ideal for relaxing in the sun with a Beach-Volleyball court. There is an indoor dining room with a shaded terrace to escape the heat with its shaded terrace. The center opens directly out onto the sea and jetties to waste no time in the water.

All UCPA meals are buffet style and with multiple servings the norm; you won't go hungry.

Breakfast is normally yogurts, cereals, fruit juice, coffee and bread - don't be surprised to see that the coffee and tea is taken in a bowl!

It is possible to return to the centre for lunch everyday where you will find 1 or 2 hot options available. As with all meals there will be a salad bar, plenty of bread, cheese, meat and of course desert. If you prefer you can make a packed lunch at breakfast time and eat on the mountain. Either way you will save a fortune avoiding the piste side restaurants.

Dinner is a 3/4 course buffet - typically a salad bar style starter, a choice of 3 hot main courses, a cheese and cold meat platter and ice cream/dessert.

Due to the cost focussed nature of UCPA and the wide range of dietary requirements, it is impossible to accommodate everyone as standard. If you have any severe dietary requirements please contact the centre two weeks before to let them know. Generally speaking vegetarians will find plenty of options, with vegan options being a little more scarce but improving year on year.
