Gassin is located about four kilometers from the sea on a rocky hilltop in the center of the Saint-Tropez peninsula. The village has preserved its original charm with its winding streets and old houses.
The village's remarkable location offers a panoramic view over vineyards, forests, and the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. From the even higher vantage point of the old fortifications, the view extends to the Îles d’Hyères, the Massif des Maures, and, on a clear day, even to the snow-capped peaks of the French Alps.
The Port-Cros National Park encompasses the almost entirely protected island of Port-Cros and the nearby small islands of Bagaud, Gabinière, and Rascas.
It is the first national park in Europe to combine both terrestrial and marine zones. Since 1971, a 1,000-hectare area on the neighboring island of Porquerolles and the National Mediterranean Botanical Conservatory (Conservatoire Botanique National Méditerranéen de Porquerolles) located there have also been managed by the park.
The approximately 30 permanent residents of the island are subject to the strict regulations of the park administration, as are the day visitors arriving by boat. Swimming is allowed at only three designated beaches. Smoking and bringing dogs are largely prohibited, with violations potentially resulting in significant fines.
Port-Grimaud is a tourist settlement in southern France, established in the 1960s by architect François Spoerry. It embodies the character of a postmodern planned city, drawing inspiration from traditional Mediterranean architectural styles, making it a model for similar projects such as Puerto de Mogán in Gran Canaria and the Palm Islands in Dubai.
This privately financed luxury estate was developed starting in 1964 on dry lagoon and marshland in the commune of Grimaud, in the Var department. The design was inspired by Venice, featuring canals, bridges, and pedestrian alleyways. The houses are equipped with private mooring spots for the owners' yachts.
The development was expanded in 1974 but remained a private community with its own streets and public spaces. To protect residents' privacy, the homeowners' association has implemented measures in recent years, including restricting access to certain pathways for visitors.
