Plage La Cadeno, Sand beach in Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, France
Plage La Cadeno is a sand beach along the shore of Lake Sainte-Croix in southeastern France, stretching with natural formations framing both sides. The site combines open water access with basic facilities for day visits.
The beach underwent major renovation in 2019, adding modern facilities while keeping the natural feel of the location intact. These improvements made the water and shoreline more accessible to day visitors.
The beach restaurant serves regional dishes such as local cheeses, terrines, and fresh fish, reflecting the food traditions of Provence.
The beach is straightforward to reach with parking near the entrance, making it easy to get to the water quickly. Water conditions are most pleasant from late spring through early fall when temperatures are warmest.
The beach sits where the calm lake meets the dramatic cliffs of the Verdon canyon, bringing together water activities and hiking in one location. This rare position allows visitors to swim in the morning and explore steep canyon trails in the afternoon.
