Pampelonne Beach in Ramatuelle - France

The Pampelonne Bay is one of the most beautiful bays of the French Riviera. At the lower left, we see the Bonne Terrasse Beach.

Photos of Pampelonne Beach from the north and south:

Moulins zone:

In the Moulins zone, we find a completely public zone between the different private beaches.

At the edge of the beach, we find some large pines that create a border between this beach and Tahiti beach.

In this picture we measure how big Pampelonne Bay is.

Tamaris Zone:

We are a in the middle of the Tamaris zone. A nice width of sand at the level of Ton Tiki campsite.

Like our different sectors, we find many private beaches with restaurants and mattress rental.

Patch Sector:

The Patch zone is in the middle of Ramatuelle Bay. We find some public areas.

In this area we find a first-aid station near the entrance. There is a lifeguard in the summer.

As with all the Pampelonne beaches, parking must paid during the summer (day rates).

Epi Sector:

This southern zone of the Pampelonne Beach is very similar to other sectors with a pattern of private and public beaches.

Bonne Terrasse Sector:

We are in the most southern zone of Pampelonne, Bonne Terrasse. This sector is less frequented and less posh. At the edge, swimming is possible on a slight incline (with a few rocks).

A few photos taken off-season:

On this beach, we find private beaches and pontoons for coming by boat.

Here we are in the Tamaris sector of the Pampelonne Beach. We find here a nudist beach (near the chemin de Matarane).

Calm, the southern part of the Pampelonne Beach (route de Bonne Terrasse) is less posh. It is inconveniently close to a waste disposal area... Nearby we also find an area for camping cars.
