Port Grimaud 1 beach is accessible from Avenue de la Mer. You can park in front of the main entrance of Port Grimaud.

We visited port grimaud beach whilst holidaying on Prairies De La Mer, the beach is a busy beach but you can always find somewhere to sit and place your towel, if you are like us and prefer a bit of luxury you can visit one of the "private" beaches and sit on their padded loungers at a price of course! The beach has a gritty sand so make sure you bring some flip flops for your feet! Lots of bars and good food places recommend the Pic Nic inside prairies for some lunch or an ice cream

Plage de l'Escalet

Reviewed By arnoldoaroma - Düsseldorf, Germany

We have come to L‘Escalet a couple of times as we enjoyed the sporting activities possible in the bay - kayaking and SUP. There is a small paid parking nearby which has enough space when you come early. And the local kiosk stand offers some simple, but nice food after swimming. Nice place to explore.

Plage de Piemanson

Reviewed By 18philippeb - Toulouse, France

If you want to enjoy a couple of hours on a wild beach that’s the place to go. When you’ll reach the parking lot, don’t be afraid by the number of cars. The beach is so long that you’ll find a place with no one in a 50 meters radius, provided you walk for 10 minutes. Before reaching the place do not forget to stop to have look at birds (pink flamingos but also many other species) or on the salted marshes and their water colored in pink.

Plage de Jean Blanc

Reviewed By 886samanthak - Noorden, The Netherlands

Beautiful beach, lots of stairs to climb down to get there, but stunning views. The beach consists of 2 beaches and beautiful sea water. No bars and restaurants, so quite a relief and so relaxing.

Esclamandes Beach

Reviewed By travellingcanadian_9

The beach is more than 1km long and divided into 4 sections: family, dog beach, naturist beach and kite surfing. We love it because you can really walk and it's all sand unlike most of the beaches in the area which are pebbles or too short to walk along. There are some great eating spots and it's easy to walk from the town of St. Aygulf if you don't want to drive and park...but there is lots of parking available.

Plage de Bonporteau

The beach of Bonporteau is a small wild and paradisiac beach, nested in the side of the hill. To discover by the path of Bonporteau on the outskirts of the town or by the sea. We can also admire it in height of the trail of Fenouillet. To see absolutely !

Reviewed By Roedig - Stellenbosch, South Africa

There are many beaches in Cavalaire-sur-Mer, this one distinguishes itself because it is between two cliffs which gives it the feeling of a private beach. It is within walking distance of town with a 250 metre steep concrete down hill. The old folks of 70 take a rest when they come back up. The beach is accessible by bicycle as well. It has a public loo as well.
