A camping in the Var, between beaches of the Mediterranean Sea...

... and typical villages of Provence

The town of Le Muy is ideally situated to visit the Var, especially the interior of the country. The sea is only 20 kilometers far from the campsite, with sandy beaches, calanques and creeks, it is easy to go to Frejus – Saint Raphael to enjoy water sports (sailing , windsurfing, diving, nautical skiing, …). Or you can relax yourself at the beach, and swim in the warm water of the Mediterranean sea.

In fact Le Muy is a good departure place to discover the back country of the Var and Provencal landscapes, colored markets with southern flavours and scents, the lake of Sainte Croix and perched villages as Moustiers Saint Marie, the vertiginous landscapes of the Verdon Canyon with emerald waters , and the famous Maures massivs, and the Esterel massivs.

Antibes

Old Town

Sheltered from the ramparts, as you come in via the Navy gate built in the 17th century, the old town of Antibes draws a maze of streets leading to the discovery of a heritage that reflects the rich history. This town on the Mediterranean coast with its cathedral and tall Saracen towers from the 12th century and its medieval castle definitely merits a visit.
