Best Beaches and Cliffs
Porquerolles island presents a distinct geographical contrast between its northern and southern shores. The north coast features gently sloping sandy beaches like Plage de Notre-Dame and Plage d’Argent, sheltered by eucalyptus and pine forests. Conversely, the southern coast is defined by steep limestone cliffs, deep rocky inlets known as calanques, and high-altitude viewpoints like Pointe de l’Indienne. This selection spans the island's diverse coastline, from the white sands of the north to the rugged, vertical walls of the south.
