Saint-Aygulf Beach: a coastal gem to discover from Esterel Caravaning
Located in Fréjus, just 16 kilometers from our 5-star campsite in the Var and only 2 minutes from the town of Saint-Raphaël in southeastern France, Saint-Aygulf Beach is a true marvel. Also known as Les Esclamandes Beach, its unique layout, azure waters, and fine sand invite you to completely unwind during your holiday in Provence.
Saint-Aygulf Beach: a unique oasis
Saint-Aygulf Beach is a natural stretch of 800 meters of fine sand bordered by azure waters, renowned for its preserved ecosystem and uncommon architecture. From above, Saint-Aygulf Beach resembles the arches of a Roman aqueduct, and the palm trees lining the road gracefully mark the boundary between the road and the beach. These trees provide shaded areas where you can escape the sun for a meal or a rest. It is without a doubt one of the most beautiful beaches on the French Riviera!
The beach is divided into four distinct zones. The first and largest area, located between the port of Saint-Aygulf and the car park, is reserved for families. It features three coves of fine sand that are cleaned and raked daily. The second area is dedicated to water sports and is therefore off-limits to those who simply wish to swim. The third area is for those who dream of beachside freedom, and the final section is perfect for dog walking.
A fan of sunrises or sunsets? The Fréjus Beach will enchant you. The first rays of sunlight reveal a magnificent landscape that awakens the senses. At the end of the day, let yourself be carried away by the orange and blue hues of the sky and sea.
Saint-Aygulf Beach is a testament to a well-preserved ecosystem where nature and humans coexist in harmony: for several years now, loggerhead turtles have been coming to lay their eggs in the sand. If you’re lucky, you might witness their hatching and the birth of these baby turtles.
