Departing from Tour Fondue in Hyères, after just 20 minutes of ferry crossing, you arrive on the beautiful islands of Porquerolles... A true paradise on earth.
Personally, we are under the spell of this little piece of land in the middle of the Mediterranean ~ little piece of land with such a poetic &… Feminine history!
According to legend, Porquerolles was a princess, transformed into an island to escape a terrible attacker.
You will have to be a little courageous to be able to admire its beautiful landscapes... A short drive before reaching the departure port. But it's well worth it...!
During our mid-May getaway, we made a small selection for you – La Parpaille’s favorites!
Stroll on foot or by bike along the small dirt paths of the island.
Sunbathe on the pretty beaches of Porquerolles… Courtade beach, Argent beach…
Visit the Carmignac Foundations and contemplate its pretty exhibitions… This year The Infinite Woman brings together numerous works representing Women – “Strong, lascivious, fatal, loving, demonic, temptress or even mythical”. By breaking codes, stereotypes & sometimes even decorum, this exhibition will – for sure – not leave you indifferent!
Lunch in the shade of the pines enjoying the gentle breeze of the wind and the succulent and refined flavors of the dishes Drunk fish.
Taste the very good wine of Domaine La Coutarde – Special mention for white or red La Courtade.
Stroll through the town center of the village, buy good fruit or a nice ice cream.
Drink a spritz (or another delicious cocktail) at The stopover before taking the return ferry…
And of course… There are still so many other beautiful things to discover on this princess island ✨⚓️
