The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Compact free parking in central La Rochelle, just 5 minutes walk from the old port and town centre. Access via the paid 'Vieux Port Ouest' car park (free exit to the right). Very limited spaces, difficult to find especially in peak season. Slightly sloped terrain. Popular spot but noisy at night (traffic, restaurants, revellers). No facilities. Suitable for a short overnight stay outside high season.
Highlights
