Places to stay/visit costal area in Provence

Hi



we will be in Provence/south of France starting June 12 for 3 weeks including a biking trip; we are covering everything pretty well but have not booked anything on coast yet; any recommendations of nice beaches, towns, villages and recommendations on places to stay;




|||



Check out Cassis, a very pretty port town not far from Marseilles.




|||



I second Cassis; lovely place. Also Hyeres the Giens peninsula and Porquerolles island. If u cycle u can hire bikes on Porquerolles to get about as cars arent allowed.




|||



The Mahogany Hotel in Cassis is very nice and reasonable. Right across street from a town beach and a 5 minute walk int the lovely seaside village of Cassis. Hike to the Calanques,Beautiful!




|||



The village of Bormes-les-Mimosas is a very nice place to stay; it%26#39;s in the hills just above le Lavandou, which has a beautiful beach.
