PGL Mimosa Adventure Holidays and Summer Camps in France

PGL Mimosa is so close to the sand that you can leap out of your bed and onto the beach!

Situated near Valras Plage on the Mediterranean, at Mimosa you can either chill out on the beach or enjoy some action-packed watersports! Mimosa is exclusive to PGL, it's set back from the shore and opens out onto a long, uncrowded beach on the Langedoc Coast. The centre has an exciting range of activities available - with the main focus on watersports.

During your stay you’ll get to try out some fantastic watersports activities such as windsurfing and sailing all on the amazing waters of the Mediterranean. The majority of activities take place on the beach so you don’t need to go far to take part however you won’t go stir crazy, as we will take you to the clear waters of Cap d’Agde to snorkel.

Food

Fun may be important, but so is food and we want to inspire children into a healthier lifestyle that includes a tasty, balanced diet.

Our centres in France have a delicious range of food choices on their menu with a cultural flavour and whenever possible we source fresh, regional produce. We aim to provide a balance of food which is familiar but also gives guests the opportunity to try dishes influenced by the area they are visiting. There will always be a good selection of seasonal fruit and vegetables on offer each day as well as a range of salads at lunch and dinner.

'Please sir, can I have some more?'
Appetite varies hugely from child to child and we want everyone to leave the dining room feeling full and happy. There is unlimited access to the salad bar and bread basket and children can help themselves to fruit. Our buffet style restaurant means that children can ‘mix and match’ the items they enjoy.

Our Group leaders are on hand to help and will look out for anyone who can’t find anything on the menu that they enjoy. If necessary our catering teams will be more than happy to prepare something special.

Allergies, intolerances and other dietary requirements
A vegetarian alternative can always be provided on all our holidays, and we can accommodate most special diets required on medical or religious grounds, just let us know when you book.

Keeping hydrated
Water, squash, tea and coffee are available with all meals and children are encouraged to refill their water bottles for regular use throughout the day. There are also water fountains available around the centre.
