Why Kids (and Parents) Love It
Our bouncy castle is a vibrant hub for young guests. Children bounce, balance, and giggle while parents enjoy peace of mind nearby. It’s one part of a wider family setup that keeps everyone happy:
- A dedicated playground with swings, a balance platform, monkey bars, a climbing frame, a playhouse, and spring riders.
- A multi-sports field, plus table tennis and foosball, so older kids and adults can join the fun too.
- Two pétanque courts—and if you forgot your boules, we can lend you some.
All of this sits within the campsite’s warm, welcoming atmosphere near Évian-les-Bains, designed to help you relax while your children play.
Safety First: Simple Tips for Confident Play
Our bouncy castle is made for carefree fun. As play is under parental responsibility, here are easy, widely recommended tips to help you guide a safe jumping session:
- Stay present and supervise at all times.
- Group children by similar size and age when possible.
- Remove shoes and any sharp objects (like belts or jewelry) before bouncing.
- Set simple rules: no flips, no wrestling, and feet-first landings.
- Keep the entrance and exit clear for safe coming and going.
- Encourage regular water breaks, sunscreen, and shade when it’s warm.
- Pause play in high winds or storms.
These basics help keep the focus on fun while minimizing bumps and tangles.

Bounce, Splash, Explore: Sciez Beach a 5-Minute Walk Away
After a joyful jumping session, stroll five minutes to the marina and Sciez-sur-Léman beach, proudly Blue Flag-labeled since 2009. Family conveniences like toilets and recycling bins help keep lake water clean and swimmable. In summer (July–August), the bathing area is supervised, and a tiralo beach wheelchair is available from lifeguards.
Make a day of it by pairing beach time with lakeside activities: windsurfing, pedalos, paddleboarding, boat rental, and fishing. Nearby restaurants and brasseries welcome you for relaxed, waterside meals or a quick ice cream. Note: dogs are permitted only on designated parts of the beach.
