Isn't the Côte Bleue a bigger secret? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Côte_Bleue https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Côte_Bleue doesn't even have a real Wikipedia page. Of course the stress there is on coastal, for anything bigger you would need to go to Marseille.
- yread 4y agoYes, I spent some time in Carry le Rouet, amazing stretch of coasts with all the calanques to explore
- prmoustache 4y agoThey may be considered secrets internationnally but they aren't really. All the mediterranean coast is packed with tourists every summer. The difference only is on the individual restrictions in urbanization, natural parks/parking space limits that makes that some areas are better preserved/less practical to visit.
- prmoustache 4y agoBy the way, regardless of the exact place the best way to enjoy the mediterranean coast is to dial your habits/schedule. I can literally see the mediterranean sea from the office I am writing that comment and only have to cross the street to enjoy some beach time. By 11am the beaches are just packed. What I usually do during summer time is go to the beach/sea before work and 2h before sunset when most tourists are leaving the beach to take a shower and dress up before going for dinner. When I go doing standup paddle between 7 and 9am the beach is the cleanest and empty.
