Plage Ranc, Coastal beach in La Croix-Valmer, France.
Plage Ranc is a sandy beach along the Mediterranean coast in La Croix-Valmer with shallow waters and rocky coves. The shoreline is fringed with pine trees and offers different zones for swimming as well as areas for exploring rocks and tidal pools.
The beach formed naturally along the Mediterranean coast and became a destination during the early 1900s as tourists discovered the Côte d'Azur. The area developed from a quiet coastal spot into a popular bathing place during the expansion of French seaside tourism.
Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices near Plage Ranc, contributing to the regional maritime heritage of the French Riviera.
The beach can be reached via a network of coastal paths beginning from the village and easy to follow. Parking spaces are located near the access point, and the walk to the water is short and straightforward.
Rock formations create natural pools that reveal different habitats with small fish and starfish when the tide goes out. These hidden pools invite visitors to discover the coastal world up close.
