The time for preparations is already here. Your weeks off are over and now the big question is: where to spend your summer vacation in France? Well imagine that we have the answer: Bandol.
1. the essentials: sun, sea and nature
Let's start with the obvious, the number one argument of holidaymakers who come to us: in summer, Bandol adorns itself with its finest assets. As well, Southern sun, turquoise Mediterranean and typical Var landscapes are always in the game.
For example, a typical day could be likened to a session laze on the beach punctuated by swimming breaks to refresh itself. With why not at the end of the day, a ride on the coastal path. All in the shade of the umbrella pines and above all in the front row for admire the sunset.
We could also imagine a day punctuated by a marine excursion by kayak or paddle and picnic in a small cove accessible only by sea. With the added bonus of course snorkelling session to observe the endemic species of our coasts. We don't know you, but we can already see you there!
