Littoral Varois

Living on the western Var coast

The Mediterranean charm of the Var coastline

From Bandol to Cavalaire, the Var coastline unfolds a landscape of varied terrain where the sea meets the mountains. Marked trails wind along fine sandy beaches, wild coves, pine forests, and woodlands, offering breathtaking views of the waves lapping against the rocky shore. With nearly 3,000 hours of sunshine per year, this region, bathed in a Mediterranean climate, fosters an incomparable quality of life.

The elegance of the seaside resorts of western Var

The western coast is home to renowned destinations such as Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer (and its famous Baie des Lecques), Bandol with its terraced vineyards plunging toward the sea, and Sanary-sur-Mer, whose authentic harbor attracts lovers of Provençal charm.


Hyères and the treasure of the Îles d’Or

Located between Toulon and Le Lavandou, Hyères stands out as the southernmost city in Provence. Its sheltered harbor and peninsula offer forty kilometers of unspoiled coastline. Offshore, the three Îles d’Or (Porquerolles, Port-Cros, Le Levant) are the true jewels of this stretch of coastline. Steeped in history, they offer an exceptional natural setting and popular destinations for excursions throughout the year.


From Le Lavandou to Cavalaire: the setting of the Massif des Maures

Further east, Le Lavandou stretches along twelve kilometers of coastline where fine sand meets the azure, amethyst, and turquoise hues of the Mediterranean. A true botanical sanctuary.
