WALKS

The coastline directly accessible from La Gabinière holiday residence is threaded with 18 km of walking trails just waiting to be explored: cliffs, wild coves, typical vegetation (leaning pines, forests of holly oak)…

Tour Fondue quay is just 100 metres from La Gabinière (discounted prices at reception): a 15 minute crossing on the TVM boat (www.tlv-tvm.com) will take you to Porquerolles, where you can choose to explore the island on foot or on a mountain bike, or simply relax on some of the most beautiful beaches of the Mediterranean.

AQUATIC ACTIVITIES

Scuba diving

Just next to La Gabinière, our partner, ESPACE MER diving club (www.espacemer.fr) invites you to discover the Côte d’Azur’s richest underwater sites: wrecks, underwater islands and walls, coral, groupers and much more. Le Sec de la Gabinière, an islet off Port-Cros Island, is considered one of the best diving spots in the Mediterranean.

Flippers, mask and snorkel

Explore at leisure the wealth of Mediterranean marine flora and fauna in the nearby coves or on Port-Cros Island (a protected area, marked underwater trail off Plage de la Palud).

Water sports and recreational activities

Seasoned enthusiasts and beginners alike can experience the joys of wind surfing and kitesurfing, particularly at Plage de l’Almanarre. Meanwhile, motor-sport fans can head to Speedkart (www.speedkart.fr) for a spot of karting. Jet skis can also be hired from various local operators.

EVENTS

In July and August, a number of high-quality events (sports tournaments, shows, nautical activities) are organised with our partner, Camping Presqu’île de Giens, 2 km from La Gabinière holiday residence (for more information visit www.camping-giens.com).
