La Croix Valmer

Source: www.provenceweb.fr. Posted on 23 February 2005.

This summer resort is back to back with the cliff road of the Maures in a very green setting. The village has been able to keep its peace and traditions in spite of large groups of tourists.

With its seven naturaily sandy beaches, La Croix Valmer is reputed for the quality of its swimming waters. (Gigaro beach is one of the greatest, and famous)

The town owns 220 ha. of nature reserves and is a magnificent place for walking in the woods and along the coast from Gigaro beach to Cap Lardier (the sentiers des douaniers).
