User reviews
"The petite shoreline is adorned with lush foliage that provides ample shade, a definite advantage for beachgoers seeking respite from the sun's scorching rays. While taking in the breathtaking vistas of Toulon, the only drawback is the presence of military vessels anchored at the pier, which unfortunately malfunction and disrupt the peace within a mere 100 meters away."
Nathaniel RENARD.

The picturesque view of Toulon's harbor is simply breathtaking, although one must be willing to overlook the sight of an old rusty Navy boat. There are a few shaded spots available, but they tend to get taken quickly. It's a great spot to watch the impressive large boats leaving..."
