Our opinion on the Gigaro Beach

Adresse of the Gigaro Beach : Cavalière Valmer 83420 La Croix-Valmer

Gigaro Beach is the biggest sand beach in La Croix Valmer. This beach could be cut into three zones. The most frequented is the central part with a first-aid station open in season. It is easily accessible by stairs from the road. We find several businesses around: supermarket, restaurants, bars...) The western part borders Héraclée Beach (accessible from the latter if you go toward the left). The eastern part is the most preserved and offers a great view of Cape Lardier. It's equally the depart for the coastal path.

To get here from La Croix Valmer, follow directions for Gigaro. The beach is found at the end of the coastal road. Parking is available along the road. We also find a parking lot where you'll have to pay in season.

We are near the first-aid station of Gigaro Beach. It's the most central zone nearest to the businesses. Further, we see the Massif des Maures and Cavalaire sur Mer.

In this zone the beach is relatively narrow. A nice view of the point de Vergeron where we find several beaches.

The beach near Cape Lardier is wider and more wild.

We see an access to this zone on the right (at the end of the road is a fence which leads directly to the path). There is also a beach volleyball court here.
