Location & what to see
La Croix-Valmer stretches along the Var coastline, between Mediterranean beaches, pine-covered hills and vineyards. The Gigaro area has a seaside atmosphere and plenty of outdoor activities; it suits travellers who want to alternate swimming and walks with quiet moments in the Provençal countryside. The village retains a local character distinct from the lively neighbouring seaside resorts.
Gigaro and Héraclée beaches are ideal for swimming and walking along the shore. The Site Naturel Remarquable de Pardigon offers coastal scenery to explore on foot, while nearby wine estates welcome visitors wishing to discover the region’s wines. Ramatuelle and Gassin, hilltop Provençal villages with narrow lanes and open views, make good destinations for an excursion. Saint-Tropez, about a 20-minute drive away, has a port, citadel and museums. La Môle - Saint-Tropez Airport is 8 km away; Toulon-Hyères Airport is 35 km away. A car makes it easier to get between the beaches and villages.
In summer, the sea and beaches set the pace of the day, but the coast is very busy. Spring and early autumn bring pleasant temperatures for walking the trails and visiting the villages without spending the whole day swimming. You could spend the morning by the water, then visit Gassin or Ramatuelle in the afternoon. In September, the wine estates also offer a chance to discover the grape harvest season in the Var.
