Beautiful , clean, very pretty very friendly locals. Tourist information staff so helpful. Gorgeous restaurants and stunning views Market days worth visiting -can be difficult to park (usually no problem, and several small free car parks) but there is a big underground car-park which charges, reasonable price. Small free museum, well worth a visit. A very special place indeed.

If you are driving, we think Grimaud, though not a destination in itself, is ideal as an appealing base for the whole area. It offers easy driving access to everything in the region, lower cost to park and stay, and it's attractive, relatively uncrowded and quiet. There is a "train" shuttle to Port Grimaud; it's not free but convenient. We were there for 4 days in May. There are a short week's worth of good restaurants, an ice cream/sandwich shop, and even a free and pretty good museum of local culture good for 20-30 min. A hilltop castle ruin is accessible and lit at night. There's a Tourist Office and a pharmacy. We drove north to the impressive Verdon Gorge; it was a long drive but scenic. It required a day total and was worth it. Stopping at the village of Tourtour (photos) coming back, that was great for a 45 minute stroll and photos. Hint: if you don't want to spend 8 euros for a 1L bottle of still water, specify "TAP water" with EMphasis!

The village is pleasant but small. Because of the Covid situation only a couple restaurants were open in the evening and these were subject to a curfew. For both nights we stayed there we ate at “Cafe Telline” next to the Suffren hotel. The food was good and the manageress Zuzana was welcoming and very helpful
