Porquerolles is a Mediterranean island in the Var, in the Îles d’Hyères archipelago. The village has houses with light-coloured façades, small squares and shops, while paths lead out towards the beaches, pine forests and maquis landscapes. Motor traffic is very limited; the island is mainly explored on foot or by bicycle. L'Oustaou de Porquerolles is on Place d’Armes, in the village, near the harbour.

Sainte-Anne Church and Emmanuel Lopez Garden make peaceful stops in the village. Château Sainte-Agathe overlooks the surrounding area and offers a closer look at the island’s defensive history. For swimming, Plage des Porquerollais and Première Courtade are among the beaches accessible from the village; other coves can be found by following the trails. Port-Cros National Park protects the archipelago’s land and marine environments. To reach Porquerolles from the mainland, travel to the Giens peninsula and take a boat from Tour Fondue; Toulon-Hyères Airport is near this departure point.

Spring and early autumn are good times for cycling and hiking, with temperatures often more moderate than in July and August. In July and August, the beaches and paths are busier: setting out early lets you enjoy the morning calm and the light on the sea. You can spend a day cycling a loop, swimming on the north coast and returning to the village for dinner. Wear sturdy shoes on the trails and take water with you, especially in hot weather.
