Small, well-maintained pebble cove
However, recurring problems of rainwater overflow like its neighbor Éden Roc
The city of Bandol is often forced to ban swimming but the beaches remain open
Work planned for September but without guarantee of results (caution)
Located on the coastal path just after the better known one of Éden Roc
Access by stairs, unsupervised but very popular with locals and residents
Not wheelchair accessible
Commemorative plaque in front of the cove which pays tribute to the three musqemers, who carried out the first test of scuba diving on this beach in 1943, which would later open “the world of silence”
The Mousquemers designates a group of friends made up of frigate captain Philippe Tailliez, lieutenant Jacques-Yves Cousteau, and Frédéric Dumas.
Good dive into history
