Camping Merko Lacarra

The establishment

Spent a week in August at this lovely family run site. Located beside the sea with a choice of beaches, and bars and restaurants within 1-5 minutes walk. We brought our own caravan and large awning and we're delighted with our pitch which was located in a quiet corner. The family and staff are very kind and friendly. We enjoyed many relaxed breakfasts and coffees in the cafe. The facilities were kept very clean. I highly recommend it. We really enjoyed the open air cinemae evening. Thank you Camping Merko Lecarra for a wonderful stay.

Beautiful, clean camping with practical layout. Close vicinity (5 min walking distance) to the beaches, restaurants, bars, surfing school and bus stop. Silence at night - you hear only ocean. Top notch customer experience, very friendly and supportive staff (even though my french is poor at best :-)). You can order fresh bread and croissants each day. On-camping events - we especially liked live concert of small band. All in all, wonderful vacation. Two thumbs up, way up!!!

This is our 3rd time here. The site is a family owned site and it shows. The owners and the team here are full of pride about the site and quite rightly so. The team here can never do enough to help. Gardens are immaculate , pitches very well cared for and will accommodate almost all tenants and caravans. Some do slope a little but this has never bothers us and we are in a tent. Toilet block is almost new and is very clean and tidy. We have camped for many years and it is difficult to fault this site. Always a great experience and we will look forward to returning in 2025.

Given the location it is very popular with surfers. I wonder if it would be possible to have a mop/ squeegee in the shower block . There can be a bit of sand around at the popular times of day.

The people who run the site are warm, welcoming and helpful. The site is spotlessly clean and located next to the beach and several bars/restaurants. The bus to SJDL is just outside and takes 30 minutes. SJDL is delightful. There is a snack bar on site which serves great snacks and you can also order pastries for the following morning. The site is peaceful; at night it is very quiet which may not suit everyone but we loved it. There is a laundry with 1 washing machine and 1 dryer; it can get quite busy but the dry and washer are both efficient.

The campsite is perfect. Quiet and incredibly clean. Owned by a very friendly family, nothing is too much for them.

Don’t change a thing

Very friendly staff on checkin and everything explained clearly, good size pitch and well maintained, toilets, showers and washing up area immaculate and cleaned on a regular basis. Nice little snack on site and bread ordered daily, fabulous location literally 3 minutes from 2 beaches and small beach bars on both offering food and drinks. This really is a very good campsite and staff are visible daily doing maintenance and cleaning….well worth a visit if you’re in the area or make it a part of your travel plans, you won’t be disappointed

Campsite is ideally situated next to the beach. The lane down to the beach can get quite busy but as soon as you step into the campsite, all is very peaceful, green & quiet! The family who own the campsite are so friendly & always available should you have any queries/or just to say hello. Daily Pastries & bread can be ordered which was great. The beach 5min walk is great for swimming/surfing. We enjoyed a surf lesson (bookable just over road from campsite) & nice meals at one of the beachside bars. On Coastal path to St Jean de Luz (& bus route). Small grocery shop 10mins walk up road.

This is the second time we have stayed. This is fast becoming one of our favourite sites. What makes this site that much more special is the family and colleagues who run the site It is kept in immaculate condition and the attention to detail is second to none Whilst it may not have some of the facilities of some larger sites such as a pool there are bars and two superb beaches within 5 mins walk During the evening there is a security guard on the gate which is the only way in and out of the site. This gives an added reassurance. Again fabulous site run by a fabulous team.

On our arrival we were greeted with an enthusiastic welcome clearly remembering my telephone conversations from a few months earlier. We were given a map to our pitch which was at the top end of the site. The pitch was great in fact in I would go as far as perfect. As promised we had all the space we needed. The site was immaculate nothing out of place and clearly very well run by this family owned site.They are rightly proud. This is a quiet site which suited us well. There are beach bars very near by that can be heard but not to our detriment. Fantastic team Fantastic site ,
