This resort wonderfully captures the atmosphere of a traditional Mediterranean fishing village is a picturesque network of canals, small stone bridges linking the islands to the mainland, squares and pretty streets - a miniature Venice with varied Provencal houses painted in pastel colours built around the waterway system. Many houses have there own mooring, and care was taken by the designer Francois Spoerry that each has its own individual character. Yachts, motor boats and tenders pass by throughout the day and there is always something to watch.
