My husband and I are taking our 3 sons (14,10,7) and my parents to a private villa in boulouris at the end of July for 2 weeks. Where are the best beaches for families and some peace, my boys are quiet and prefer snorkelling and fishing to ball games. Is there anywhere to go horse riding as we are all riders as well? Do they have daily markets in Boulouris or surrounding towns, do we need a car for 2 weeks and can you tell me some of the nice but inexpensive places to eat are. We have a very hectic 50 wks a year and like to just relax and let time pass us by on holiday. I thank you all in advance for your help as I know I have asked a lot of questions!
Thank you

Boulouris has some nice beaches that are on the quiet side, and depending on the villa location, you might even be within easy walking distance of them.
One of my favorites is the Plage de la Tortue (see our web site for pics: http://www.azuralive.com/2007/06/best-beach-la-p.html).
A short drive east takes you to Agay, a fun seaside resort town where you can rent kayaks, windsurfers etc... I enjoy La Rade d%26#39;Agay as a seaside restaurant there, as well as the little snack at the eastern end of the beach.
You%26#39;re in luck on horseback riding too! There%26#39;s a ranch in the Estérel area (the mountains right behind Agay) that rents horses and poneys: Les 3 Fers: http://www.les3fers.com/. Also Esterel Ranch: http://www.esterelranch.com/
I often go to the Boulouris monday morning market as I run a hiking group from there on mondays. The market is small, but offers good choices on produce. Plus there%26#39;s usually a couple of vendors with ready-made dishes (pork loin, roasted chickens, etc) that make the cooking easier. The open market is in the center of town, right by the post office and behind the train station.
Enjoy!
