Calanque de la Galère

La Galère lives up to its name — getting here isn't easy, but that's exactly why it's worth it. Tucked between Port d'Alon and Bandol, this secluded cove rewards those who make the effort, with clear water and a rugged limestone setting typical of the Var coastline. You anchor off and swim ashore, with a tricky but manageable path connecting to the customs trail (chemin des douaniers) if you fancy stretching your legs toward Bandol.
