A well-maintained family beach
The town of Saint-Raphaël always takes great care in maintaining Veillat Beach. Before the arrival of summer, the beach is replenished with white sand to ensure optimal comfort for bathers. The space is leveled to create a smooth and pleasant surface. This maintenance gives the beach an exotic destination feel.
Along this beach, the promenade offers rest areas that invite relaxation and idleness. Part of this promenade is shaded thanks to 35 m² of pergolas with chairs recalling the turquoise hues of the Mediterranean. Settle in for a snack or a relaxing break while enjoying the breathtaking view of Saint-Raphaël Bay.Veillat Beach: A Seaside Resort for Every Desire

In the evening, it offers an idyllic setting to admire the sunsets over the Mediterranean.
