What to do in Bandol?

Stroll along the harbour and seafront

Start with Bandol harbour: Mediterranean atmosphere, boats, terraces, and a great spot for a sunset stroll. Bandol Tourisme lists the harbour among its top must-sees.

Renécros beach

One of the town’s flagship beaches, ideal for an easy swim without going far. It is one of the must-sees listed by the tourist office.

The coastal path (walk number 1)

For the best views, take the coastal path: coves, rocks, pines, panoramas over the coast… It is Bandol’s signature walk.

Practical tip: comfortable shoes, water, and avoid the hottest hours in summer.

Bandol’s markets

To try: tapenade, cheeses, Provençal fruit, olive oils… perfect for a picnic.
