Space is what makes this beach stand out. Instead of squeezing onto a small strip of sand, you get room to spread out, walk, and actually relax.
Plage des Sablettes, located in La Seyne-sur-Mer near Toulon in the Var, stretches for over a kilometer of fine sand. It’s one of the best beaches in the area for families, thanks to its gentle slope into the water and wide open space for kids to play.
The beach offers a clear view of the iconic Deux Frères rock formations, which rise from the sea just offshore and give the landscape a distinct character. It’s also well-equipped, with easy access, facilities for people with reduced mobility, and plenty of nearby options for food and drinks.
Restaurants, snack bars, and cafés line the promenade, making it easy to spend an entire day here without needing to move far. It’s a relaxed, social beach where locals come to swim, picnic, and enjoy the seaside atmosphere.
👉 Local Tip: Head to the quieter ends of the beach if you want more space. The central area near the main access points gets busy quickly in summer.
