Tourist activities to discover around Village Vacances La Londe-les-Maures
The La Londe-les-Maures themed holiday village*** in Provence is ideally situated to enable you to discover the tourist activities the Var has to offer. There are several incredible nature sites nearby and the culture of the South and the vineyards make you enjoy a very pleasant change of scenery for your themed holiday. The Maures mountain range, with its small wild valleys strewn with cork oak trees, is close-by. The turquoise waters of the Mediterranean are just 2.5 km away. The town of La Londe-les-Maures boasts 3 km of outstanding beaches, with a view over Fort de Brégançon and the islands of Port-Cros and Porquerolles. This famous coastal archipelago is part of the Port-Cros national park, a UNESCO world heritage site. In Porquerolles, why not take a dip on the Notre Dame beach, which was named Europe's most beautiful beach in 2015. A few of the nearby heritage sites are truly legendary: Saint-Tropez, Port-Grimaud and Calanques de Cassis, a paradise for scuba diving and rock climbing. Whether by the sea or on land, Provence has so much to offer. With a holiday at the La Londe-les-Maures holiday village**, you can explore at your own pace. You’re going to love the little colourful markets in the neighbouring villages, discovering the wine cellars of the vineyards, and the secrets of how olive oil is made...
