Location:
With amazing sea-views from its hillside position, it’s a short walk down the hill to the coast where you will find restaurants and a sandy beach, Aiguebelle, with beautiful clear water. A cycle path runs from the beach to nearby Cavaliere where you will find a great array of watersports.
All along this coastline there is a good choice of sandy family friendly beaches and hidden coves such as nearby La Fossette and Plage du Rayol as well as beautiful spots further east such as Gigaro Beach and the six kilometres of La Croix Valmer coastline where you will find some stunning walks following the sea surrounded by diverse flora and fauna.
Le Lavandou (6km) is a popular seaside resort with lots of activities plus an international yacht marina which also features fishing boats still bringing in their catch of the day; don’t miss the fish market every morning in decent weather! You’ll find lots of nightlife in the summer months when the town comes alive with casinos, bars and night clubs but if you’re looking for a more laid back approach there are plenty of good restaurants and cafes. Head to the weekly Farmer’s market on a Thursday morning to pick up some lovely local produce.
Other outdoor activities in the region include tennis, golf, mini-golf, horse-riding, go-karting, polo and an outdoor cinema in the summer months.
Head inland to the delightful Bormes-les-Mimosas (8km), a little gem in the hills, well-known for being full of colourful flowers, pretty stone walled houses and a quiet ambience of village life.
Other idyllic Provençal villages such include medieval Grimaud (30km) which stands out for its flower filled cobbled streets, ancient churches and stunning views, Gassin (26km), Ramatuelle (30km) and La Môle (25km), a paradise for walkers with some beautiful trails through the stunning countryside.
Fashionable Saint-Tropez (35km) is just a 50-minute drive, or in the summer you can beat the traffic, park in Port Grimaud (30km) and take the ferry across from there during the day. Saint-Tropez is famous for its winding medieval streets, traditional pastel-painted fishermen’s cottages, boutiques and restaurants and the port with fishing boats moored alongside luxurious yachts.
Those who enjoy the glitz and glamour must visit Pampelonne Beach and its various beach restaurants including the exclusive Club 55, popular with celebrities as well as visitors.

About the area
Cavalaire-sur-Mer, nestled on the French Riviera between Saint-Tropez and Le Lavandou, is a coastal gem that offers visitors a quintessential Mediterranean experience. This seaside resort is renowned for its long sandy beaches, crystal-clear waters, and a sunny climate that beckons travelers seeking relaxation and outdoor activities.
The town's main attraction is undoubtedly its expansive beach, which stretches over 4 kilometers and provides ample space for sunbathing, swimming, and a variety of water sports. The gentle slope of the seabed makes it ideal for families with children, while the presence of windsurfing, sailing, and diving schools caters to adventure enthusiasts.
Cavalaire-sur-Mer is also a haven for nature lovers. The surrounding hills and the protected Cap Lardier estate offer numerous hiking trails that reward trekkers with stunning views of the Mediterranean and the lush countryside. The coastal path, known as the Sentier du Littoral, is a particularly scenic route that takes walkers along the rugged coastline, past hidden coves and through fragrant maquis shrubland.
The town's marina is a lively hub of activity, where visitors can admire an array of boats and yachts or embark on a sea excursion to explore the nearby islands of Porquerolles, Port-Cros, and Le Levant, which are part of the Îles d'Hyères archipelago. These islands are known for their natural beauty, with protected national parks that are perfect for day trips.
Cavalaire-sur-Mer's culinary offerings are another highlight, with a variety of restaurants serving fresh seafood and local Provençal dishes. The weekly market is a feast for the senses, where one can find regional products such as olive oil, herbs, cheeses, and wines that reflect the rich gastronomy of the South of France.
Cultural events and festivals add to the town's charm, with summer concerts, open-air cinema screenings, and the annual sailing regatta, Les Voiles de Cavalaire, which brings together sailing enthusiasts from around the world.
For those interested in history, the area around Cavalaire-sur-Mer is dotted with remnants from World War II, including the landing beaches used during Operation Dragoon. The town's Liberation Museum offers insights into this significant period.
In essence, Cavalaire-sur-Mer is a destination that combines the allure of the French Riviera with the tranquility of a less crowded resort town. It's a place where visitors can indulge in the simple pleasures of seaside living while enjoying the natural and cultural richness of the region.
