Plage de Bonporteau

Bonporteau beach stretches along a wide cove filled with fine sand and bordered by natural rocks, eucalyptus trees, and wild palms. The shoreline is framed by vegetation that gives the area a natural and undeveloped appearance.

The beach sits within the Bay of Cavalaire, which forms part of the French Mediterranean coast's natural heritage. The region has been important for settlement and commerce since ancient times, shaping the coastal communities that exist today.

The beach serves as a protected natural space where gentle cleaning practices help maintain the coastal environment and marine life. Visitors can observe how local conservation efforts shape the appearance and condition of this stretch of shore.

Access the beach via a steep path from Avenue de Bonporteau, where parking spaces are limited, and picnic tables are available at the entrance. It helps to arrive early, especially during peak season, since parking is restricted.

The waters at Bonporteau are home to diverse marine life and draw divers interested in exploring the underwater rocks and reef formations just beneath the surface. Guided dives with certified instructors let visitors discover the hidden underwater world of this protected cove.
