Campsites by the sea: the perfect mix of beach, nature and farm life

If you think of a holiday where you wake up in the morning with the smell of salt water, feel sand between your toes in the afternoon and enjoy peace and atmosphere by a campfire in the evening, then the combination of campsites by the sea is ideal. At FarmCamps we take this concept to a new level: luxury camping on farms located close to the coast, so you have the best of both worlds.
In this blog I will take you through the charm and advantages of
campsites by the sea at FarmCamps what to expect, who it is fun for, and which locations are particularly attractive.

Why choose campsites by the sea?

The attraction of the sea is great: the salty water, the endless horizon, the sound of the waves that relaxes. Combine that with the charm of farm life and you have an experience you won’t soon forget.

Here are a few strong reasons to go for campsites by the sea:

Beach within walking distance: you don’t have to stay at the campsite all day; within a few minutes you are already with your feet in the water.
Peace & space: farms are often small-scale and rurally located, so you are less bothered by crowds near beaches or large seaside resorts.
Activities beyond the coast: if the weather turns, the farm offers countless possibilities – caring for animals, playing in haystacks, building huts, etc.
Comfort & convenience: at FarmCamps you sleep in luxuriously furnished tents (think of comfortable beds, private sanitary facilities or good amenities), so you can enjoy peace without having to give up comfort.
Educational & connecting: children learn something about animals, nature and the farm while also being able to play on the coast. The variety is ideal for families.

What makes FarmCamps different?

As you can read on the general FarmCamps page, with us it’s all about “luxury camping at the farm, full of fun”.
Important elements:
Luxury tents: you stay in a furnished tent where you have comfort such as beds, a veranda, possibly a small kitchen and good facilities.
Activities on the farm: caring for animals, feeding, playing, and so on.

For whom: families with children, nature lovers, peace seekers, and people who like that little bit extra when camping.

Campsites by the sea within the FarmCamps

Within the FarmCamps network there are a number of locations that are particularly suitable as campsites by the sea, as they are located near the coast:
Five Star (Kamperland, Zeeland) Zeeland is of course a coastal province par excellence, and this is a charming location for families who want to combine a beach holiday and the farm.
Mariekerke (Meliskerke, Zeeland) another Zeeland location that is interesting as a base for a camping holiday by the sea.
Oranjepolder (Arnemuiden, Zeeland) also in Zeeland, attractive in terms of location relative to the coast.
De Kamperhoek (Vogelwaarde, Zeeuws-Vlaanderen) although not directly on the coast, the distance to Zeeland beaches is manageable for a day trip.
Op Flakkee (Sommelsdijk, Goeree-Overflakkee) Goeree-Overflakkee is an island, so the location can be convenient to have the beach within reach.

Camping on the farm is educational and a joy for children.

If you really want to make kids happy, put them among cows, chickens, and muddy puddles. Seriously. Forget that holiday park with water slides and animation teams – on the farm, they've got their own kind of entertainment. Think feeding goats, collecting eggs, brushing ponies, and romping in the hay. And the best part? They actually learn something too. Without even realizing it.
