Bandol

Bandol is one of the biggest marinas on the French Riviera, with 1,700 berths putting it in the top 10 in all of France — so you'll almost always find space here. The port sits at the heart of a lively little town known for its Bandol AOC rosé wines, sun-drenched waterfront, and well-protected anchorages with solid holding. Fuel up at the onboard station, then head ashore to explore the weekly market, sandy beaches, and some genuinely excellent seafood restaurants just steps from the quay.
