Plage de Notre-Dame

Drop anchor off what's been voted Europe's most beautiful beach — 800 meters of impossibly fine sand lapped by turquoise water, tucked into a wooded bay on the Île de Porquerolles. It stays remarkably quiet thanks to its 3.5km trek from the village, so you'll often find it far less crowded than its reputation might suggest.
