Plage Notre Dame

About

Plage Notre Dame, often heralded as Europe’s finest beach, lies on the tranquil island of Porquerolles in the Var department of Provence‑Alpes‑Côte d’Azur. The 3.5 km stretch of fine sand is framed by lush pine and oak woods, creating a secluded, turquoise‑water bay that is especially inviting for families, couples, and nature lovers. In 2015 the beach was crowned “Best Beach in Europe” by the European tourism promotion association, a testament to its pristine conditions and idyllic scenery. Whether you stroll along the shoreline, soak up the Mediterranean sun, or explore the nearby promenade at La Courtade, Plage Notre Dame offers a quintessential Provençal beach experience that captivates all who visit.
