The main beach of the resort is approximately three kilometers long sandy beach in the bay of Cavalaire, which is bounded on both sides by steep cliffs.
The village is located on the route of the old railway
Saint Raphael – Toulon (sometimes called
Train Pignes ), now defunct. However, we can note the location of the old railway line and follow its path (and in much of the coast from Le Lavandou to St. Raphael, Cavalaire is even a “Road Train Pignes”).
