Cavalaire sur mer

Huge sandy beaches and a marina

Cavalaire is a pretty little town on the Mediterranean coast, between Saint-Tropez and Le Lavandou, the bottom of the bay of the same name, and at the foot of the first slopes of the Massif des Maures.

Cavalaire long remained a place called attached to Gassin, until people get its administrative independence in 1929. Located at the bottom of a beautiful bay that bears his name and nestled at the foot of the hill of Pradels (524 meters), Cavalaire-sur-Mer is classified Balnéaire Station since 1956.

There are two types in Cavalaire beaches: the bay, long sandy beach of 3 km long and creeks to the east of Cape Cavalaire, as Bonporteau, or Nasque, the hamlet of Dattier.

An important asset for Cavalaire, its marina, a huge and pleasant, surrounded by many restaurants and shops that make this a pleasant place to stroll.

Cavalaire is placed on the route of the former railway Saint-Raphael - Toulon (sometimes called Train des Pignes), which has disappeared. However, we can point out the location of the old railway line and follow its route (there are even in Cavalaire a "Chemin du Train des Pignes").

But Cavalaire was also the scene of major military operations during the Allied landings in Provence during the Second World War: each year to 15 August are organized and a military parade of cars and a replenishment of military camp.
