37 campsites

Teenagers are the toughest travellers to please: too old for the mini-club, too young to linger over a three-course dinner. A camping holiday solves the riddle. Camp life hands them freedom, friends and a full day's programme on one site, while you keep an easy eye on the whole scene from your pitch or mobile home. Every campsite in this theme is loved by teens, from the Adriatic to the Atlantic.

Water is where teen holidays are won. At Valamar Camping Lanterna in Istria, the Aquamar waterpark is free to guests, and the campsite comes with a Teen Hangout, a games room, a disco and a cinema area. Camping Pra' Delle Torri in Caorle goes even further with a teens' club, a skate park with ramps for BMXs and rollerskates, a gym, a disco and an 18-hole golf course. Camping Terme Catez in Slovenia adds wave pools, a lazy river and the 77-metre Kong slide, with free Wi-Fi so the thrills can be shared the moment teens step out of the water.

Sporty teens will find plenty to keep them busy. Camping Bella Italia on Lake Garda has five pools with slides, plus tennis, archery, beach volleyball and watersports to rent. Camping Senia Cala Gogo Internacional on the Costa Brava runs an entertainment programme for teenagers in season and has two water parks with giant slides, plus a free shuttle from the pool area to the beach.

Meanwhile, parents are not forgotten. Quieter corners, thermal wellness and chill-out pools sit alongside the action, and the right pitch or mobile home makes a perfect base camp. Choose the campsite that matches your teenager's energy level and book direct with us. We know these places well.

What to look out for when choosing

  • Heated pool: Travelling in spring or early autumn? Pick a heated pool, like the one with a sliding roof at Flower Camping Le Bois d'Amour.
  • Teen programme: Look for a teens' club, disco or evening entertainment. Camping Park Playa Bara has a lively evening programme.
  • Indoor option: A heated indoor pool extends swim time, and Camping Village de La Guyonnière has both indoor and outdoor pools.
  • Pool dates: Outdoor pools run through the main season, so check opening dates for your week. Camping hu Eraclea Mare opens on 1 May 2027.
  • Swim rules: Swim cap and swim shorts rules differ per campsite, so ask us before you pack.
  • Slide heights: Some slides have minimum heights, so ask which ones suit younger brothers and sisters.
  • Beach access: Want to stroll from tent to towel? Camping Gitavillage California has direct private beach access.

We love matching the campsite to the teenager. For teens who live in the water, our tip is Camping l'Océan in Brem-sur-Mer, a sprawling water park paradise with a lively family entertainment hub. If the sporty crowd needs an ocean fix, Homair - Camping Marvilla Parks - Les Vignes combines prime ocean access with an epic waterpark adventure. Families who want a ready-made holiday on the Adriatic should look at Camping Bijela Uvala, where four freshwater pools with a splash park come with direct Adriatic beachfront in shaded pine forest. Looking for variety? Camping hu Norcenni Girasole Village has two top class water parks, so there is always another slide to try. Whichever you choose, ask us about pool dates and age rules before you go, and we will point you to the best pitch or mobile home for your family. Teens remember the friends they made at the pool, and parents remember the sundowner they actually got to finish.
