    Ile des Porquerolles to Saint Tropez

    May 1, 2023 in France ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

    A beautiful beach and anchorage. We met 2 other Canadian boats/people from Quebec!
    Île des Porquerolles initially colonised by Greeks then Romans. In the 16th century, criminals could seek asylum/immunity but many became pirates! That plan was later abolished.
    The area is a nature reserve with lovely hikes through pines, myrtle,cork, chestnuts and eucalyptus and the waters are a marine reserve. Idyllic.
