Sentier des Douaniers, Coastal viewpoint path in Toulon, France
The trail extends for 4 kilometers along Mediterranean limestone cliffs, connecting hidden coves, beaches and clear blue waters.
The French customs administration established this path in 1791 to monitor the coastline and prevent maritime smuggling activities.
Traditional fishing huts with blue shutters line sections of the path, representing the maritime heritage of the region.
The complete walk takes approximately 4 hours and remains open year-round, with certain sections requiring careful navigation.
At Saint-Louis Port, local fishermen maintain their daily early morning departures, continuing centuries of maritime traditions.
