Last minute France less than 2h from Calais

Looking to go away to Northern France last week of Aug, and realise we've left it so late the longer ferry routes are v expensive or fully booked! So best to stick with Dover Calais.

Two DC 8 & 11, we're looking for cheap holiday park style accommodation, some kind of pool or water park and near a beach. Ideally only 1-2h from Calais.

Many thanks for any ideas, I'm starting to panic I've left it too late!

Try Domaine du Blanc Pignon near Le Touquet

I would try La Croix du Vieux Pont , it's a little over 2 hours from Calais port, depends if you want to travel a bit further. Lots of pools for children.

We stayed near Merlimont which had a great beach and a fab theme park called Parc Bagatelle next door. I think there is lots of euro camp style stuff near there with water parks. Maybe look near Berck or Stella Plague.

Check out Capfun or Huttopia type sites

Try pierre et vacances. There are many sites across Northern France.
