Boulouris, a coastal district of Saint-Raphaël, stretches between the Mediterranean beaches and the red hills of the Estérel. Here, life often revolves around the sea: swimming, walks along the shore and breaks in the shade of the pine trees alternate with trips to the centre of Saint-Raphaël. The area appeals to travellers looking for a seaside setting without giving up excursions inland.

Several beaches line the coast, including Pescade Beach, 530 m away, and Val Fleury Beach, 660 m away. Boulouris-sur-Mer railway station is 990 m away and provides access to the regional rail network. For a change of scenery, the Estérel Massif, 8 km away, offers hiking trails among red rocks and pine trees, with views over the Mediterranean. The centre of Saint-Raphaël has a different feel, with its heritage, port and urban promenades.

In summer, the coast draws swimmers and those looking to spend time outdoors; it is best to seek shade during the hottest hours and leave time to explore the coves. In spring and September, temperatures are often still suitable for walks and outings in the Estérel, with fewer visitors than at the height of the season. A day can start with a swim in Boulouris, continue with a hike in the massif and end with a stroll by the sea. A car offers greater flexibility for exploring beyond the beaches.
