With 6 kms of sandy beaches ( Croisette, town centre, Madrague, Nartelle, Elephants and Garonnette), Sainte Maxime offers all the authentic treasures of a typical Provencal village on the Mediterranean : a gulf with wild rocky inlets of incomparable beauty and long stretches of sandy beaches which are rarely found on the Côte d'Azur.
