Enjoying indoor activities and leisure
Wondering what to do when it rains at a naturist campsite is never a problem at France 4 Naturisme campsites. At Arnaoutchot, the indoor pool heated to 26°C and the covered play area welcome young and old all day long, while the Bassins d’Arna spa offers a sauna, hammam and jacuzzi.

Each site’s children’s and teens’ clubs take over with suitable activities.
Exploring the surroundings: cultural outings and local discoveries
A grey day at a naturist campsite can also be the perfect excuse to set off and explore the region. France 4 Naturisme campsites are ideally located near remarkable sites:
- At Domaine de Bélézy in Provence, visit the villages of the Luberon, the covered markets and the region’s wine cellars.
- Near Sérignan Plage Nature, explore the museums of Béziers or Narbonne cathedral.
- Around Arnaoutchot in the Landes, discover the prehistoric caves or the Marquèze open-air museum.
- In Corsica, from Riva Bella, head off to visit the citadel of Bastia or the perched villages of Cap Corse.
These cultural getaways turn a gloomy day into an enriching experience and let you get to know the local heritage better.
Preparing your stay to face the rain with peace of mind
A few simple tips are enough to keep the rain from disrupting your naturist holiday. Remember to slip a light raincoat, closed shoes that can handle water and a few card or board games into your luggage. If you’re camping in a tent, an extra tarpaulin stretched over your outdoor living space will make all the difference. And for those staying in a mobile home or bungalow, the rain becomes almost a non-event: you stay dry and enjoy the comfort of your fully equipped accommodation at France 4 Naturisme.
The France 4 Naturisme team’s favourite: settling into your mobile home with a good book and listening to the rain fall on the roof, surrounded by the campsite’s preserved nature. It’s a simple luxury that only a naturist campsite truly offers. Add a hot herbal tea and a blanket, and you get the perfect moment of relaxation to recharge your batteries.
Turning the rain into a moment of reconnection
Rather than putting up with a downpour, see it as an invitation to slow down. At a naturist campsite, the philosophy of life is based on harmony with nature, and rain is part of that. It’s the ideal time to practise meditation, take part in a yoga session under cover or simply share a friendly meal with your camping neighbours. Rainy evenings also lend themselves wonderfully to the concerts and shows held in the indoor halls of France 4 Naturisme campsites.
