Parc Highlights

  • This well-kept parc offers superb entertainment

  • Great location for day trips to Perpignan and Spain

  • The attractive pool complex is a great place to relax

While Le Brasilia is a favoured spot for beach lovers, it is also a verdant gem offering plenty of shade on parc.

As a member of the Yelloh! Village chain and certainly one of the best parcs in the area, indeed in France, Le Brasilia makes an ideal choice for those seeking a beach-based holiday in a lively area. A green and colourful parc with plenty of shade, it has an excellent shopping complex with a small supermarket and shops open all season. Many Eurocampers like to eat in the restaurant and enjoy the nightly live music, and with a new waterpark to complement the existing pool complex, as well as bicycle hire and archery, there’s lots to keep everyone entertained during the day. Most importantly though, Le Brasilia offers you direct access to a beautiful sandy beach where you can sunbathe or enjoy the excellent watersports. There are also plenty of good day trip opportunities, including Perpignan and even Spain.

Local Directions

Leave the A9 motorway at junction 41 (signposted Perpignan centre/Aeroport/Rivesaltes). At the roundabout immediately after the peage, take the exit signposted towards Canet and Le Bacares, this will bring you onto the D83. Continue on this road past a ‘Carrefour’ hypermarket complex for about 8 km. Take the right hand slip road signposted to Canet en Rousillon. This will lead you onto the D81 where you should go straight ahead at the next 2 roundabouts passing the towns of Torreilles and Ste Marie. Carry on along this road until you come to the next roundabout (large roundabout with a flyover over it) where you should go all the way round and double back on yourself so that you find yourself back on the D81 in the opposite direction. Take the second slip road to your right (you should see a signpost to La Brasilia) which will lead you onto a small windy road. When you come to the next roundabout take the 2nd exit turning left and La Brasilia is at the end of this road.

Customer tips

Local recommendations and tips our customers have shared with us following their holiday at Le Brasilia.

"We loved Collioure, it was so beautiful and only about half an hour away. The waterpark at St Cyprien was amazing - we went there twice as they did a really good return deal of €10 per person. The kids adored it there. Carcassonne too is amazing and definitely worth spending a day."
G. Pitchley, Essex

"Water-skiing at Port Barcarès, canyoning in Argelès, golf at St Cyprien (if a bit pricey) and hiring a small yacht from the local marina and sailing down to St Cyprien, very reasonably priced too. Brilliant day-trips to Ville Franche, Collioure and Perpignan as well as a day in Spain at the AquaBrava waterpark by day and dinner at Roses!"
B. Davies, Buckinghamshire

"For the children we recommend Aqualand and for the adults, we recommend the Vineyard tour at Domaine Treloar. The owner is an Englishman, is very knowledgable and makes some excellent wines. We also had a lovely lunch there. The beach restaurant produced crackingly fresh seafood at reasonable prices and La Table restaurant in Perpignan was top class. Plus the Dali Museum 1½ hours away in Spain is a must!"
S. Hardon, Co. Antrim

"The tree-top adventure course and canyoning at Argelès-sur-Mer were both amazing."
A. Wilkes, Lanarkshire

"Although it was a long drive, we all loved Carcassonne. The old town is like a Harry Potter set! The shops are great and the old Cite is amazing. The Sigean African Reserve is a little pricey but well worth it - take a picnic and spend the whole day there. Castelnou is a magical place. We went in the evening when it was deserted, it's like going back in time."
C. Parnell, Dublin
