AROUND THE GULF

Le moulin de Ramatuelle -From Sainte-Maxime, Immediate Departure !
With the choice :
-Perched villages
-The small port with the international fame
-The saved Chartreuse
-Churches and full of other surprises...

 First, direction Grimaud !
Passed Guerrevieille and Beauvallon (Have a look to the hôtel "Beauvallon", a witness of the Beautiful Time), you will discover, withdrawn of the littoral, the historical village of Grimaud, stronghold of Grimaldi, with its castle vestige (going back to 980) and its vault of Penitent (XIe).
But also the mill of Saint-Roch exposed to the winds.


Port Grimaud

 While going down again from this headland, stop at Port Grimaud. The "Venice of Provence" was built in years 60-70 on... marshes !

Discover its channels, its bridges, its paved lanes, its market square and its fishermen houses.

 Continuing towards Saint-Pons and the large roundabout of la Foux, you will move then towards Cogolin, artisanal village, famous for its pipes, carpets and sheers manufactures, its ironworkers and its Antique dealers district.

You grant a few moments to visit the Romance Church, the Tour de l’horloge and the Raimu museum...
Its vineyards are appreciated.
It is also the place of the famous "tarte tropézienne".
