A lazy day at the campsite and its environs during which we went swimming in the pool and in the sea from the local beach.
The campsite is located on a strangely named street, Boulevard de la 36
th Division du Texas. The reason for this is that on 15
th August 1944 this division landed at Dramont Beach as part of a joint American and French force of 140,000 men that helped to drive the Nazis out of France. There is a memorial to the event and we had a look at it on the way to the beach.
