Bandol stretches along the Var coast, between its harbour, vine-covered hills and Mediterranean coves. Le Fregate Provence is in a wine estate away from the town centre, amid scrubland, pine trees and rows of vines. This part of the coast suits stays that combine swimming, walks in nature and discovering Bandol wines. A car is useful for reaching beaches, nearby villages and wine estates.

The coastal path leads towards rocky inlets such as Calanque du Port d’Alon, popular for its clear water and coastal walks. Plage de la Moutte and Calanque de Jeffrey offer other places to enjoy the seaside. In Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer, the Taurœntum Gallo-Roman Museum displays the remains of an ancient villa. Bandol’s harbour and streets offer a glimpse of local maritime life and produce. Bandol railway station connects the town to the regional rail network; Toulon-Hyères Airport is 34 km away.

In spring and autumn, milder temperatures are well suited to coastal walks and visits to wine estates. In summer, more visitors come to the coast and the beaches get very busy; setting out in the morning lets you enjoy the coves when they are quieter. You can combine a coastal walk, a swim and a tasting of local wines in one day. In September and October, the grape harvest offers another opportunity to discover Bandol’s vineyards.
