La Seyne-sur-Mer

La Seyne-sur-Mer is a small Provençal seaside and holiday resort located west of Toulon in the Var department. La Seyne sur Mer's stunning location at the foot of Cap Sicié makes it a great starting point for excursions along the coast or in the lush hinterland.

La Seyne-sur-Mer is a former fishing stronghold. However, times have changed and La Seyne is now primarily a seaside resort. However, the fishermen can still be found every morning at the harbour selling their freshly caught fish, which is definitely worth a visit.

The old town is incredibly charming with its old pastel-coloured houses, small winding streets and shady squares. One of the most beautiful spots in La Seyne is the elevated coastal road La corniche Tamaris with its stunning viewpoints. Here you'll find a wealth of beautiful old villas that bear witness to La Seyne's former glory. At the end of the last century, La Seyne attracted numerous artists, including Renoir and Georges Sand, whose homes are still located here. There are also a number of oriental-style homes with minarets and roof terraces.

Water sports

Climbing: Climbers from all over Europe come here to climb les calenques at Cassis. You can either start from easily accessible places where you have walked or driven out, or directly from the water. In several places the cliffs rise vertically from the sea up to a height of 240 metres. Climbers who start at the sea are taken out by small boats from Cassis harbour or dropped off from the navettes - tourist boats.

Golf: There is a wealth of golf courses in the Var department. The French Golf Union has a website where most courses are presented. Unfortunately, the website is in French. Go to Guide de golfs and search here under the Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur region: http://www.ffgolf.org/
