Beaches
Beaches
are a strong point of the area around Frejus. There is continuous
sand stretching for around 3 miles between St Raphael in the east
and St Aygulf to the west. They enjoy good shelter from westerly
winds.
To
the west, they are generally less crowded, and behind them lies
undeveloped, open land, with a large car park adjacent to the 'Base
Nature', which lies immediately to the west of Port Frejus.

The
beaches to the east, in front of the esplanades of Frejus and St Raphael,
are very popular, with an extremely high level of facilities for visitors
including showers, childrens' beach clubs and a wide choice of places
to eat and drink. |

Closer
to St Aygulf, the beaches broaden to large tracts of sand with mini
bays created by stone breakwaters (though the water seldom breaks
in summer!). There, the water is shallow and warm, ideal for carefree
fun for the children. It is entirely feasible to walk there from
the apartment to St Aygulf, but it is advisable to drive if children
are in the party or there is any quantity of beach equipment.
There
is a substabtial amount of parking at very reasonable cost adjacent
to the beaches near St Aygulf, though spaces are can be hard to
find between 11am and 4pm in summer.

Further
afield, there is a multitude of bays and coves stretching for miles.
There are many pretty ones to be found west from St Aygulf towards
Les Issambres and Ste Maxime. |
