Plage de Portissol
10 Hannah Milo

The scenery at the beach is absolutely beautiful, and the bay is well protected. The hotel and restaurant at the bar are also quite nice.

Plage de la Verne
10 Ethan Sinclair

We've been to many beaches, but this one is truly one of the most stunning. Just a word of caution, it's a pebble beach, so watch your step. The water trail is absolutely breathtaking and the signage is excellent. Plus, there are lifeguards on duty to ensure everyone's safety.

Sablettes Beach
6 Avery Mitchell

This beach in southern France may not be the most unique, but it's certainly worth a visit if you're in the area or looking for a refreshing break from the hustle and bustle of city life. Along the promenade, there are several quaint cafes and restaurants to choose from, but be warned that finding a seat during lunchtime can be a challenge if you're only looking for drinks. During our visit, we encountered a large crowd and were turned away from a couple of bars when we declined menus. Eventually, we found a seat, but it wasn't as well-shaded as the dining tables. However, we were pleasantly surprised when a nearby restaurant generously offered us a free litre carafe of chilled water - a much-needed respite from the heat.
