Sandaya Belle Plage is a bit rough around the edges but still has plenty to offer. It is also well situated for activities off-site which adds to the experience with Lorient being within reach by road, bike or public transport.
Our reasons for visiting this aire were multiple. We had previously stayed in the campsite in Pontorson and cycled past the aire on our way to Mont-Saint-Michel so we knew it was well situated. It is located close to Alligator Bay which the kids were keen to revisit and it was only a short drive from Cherbourg so would help keep us out of traffic.

The beach, the town and the cliffs provided us with plenty of options and things. Do bear in mind that we tend to be relatively active on our breaks and did the cliff walk with the kids every day.
